View and annotate a license key

The license-keys page is laid out as a master-detail view: pick a key from the list on the left, and the panel on the right shows the full key string and a free-form comment. The comment is editable so you can record who the key was issued for, the contract number, or any other context.

View the full license key

1. In the Portal, open Licensing → License keys.
2. Click the row of the key you want to inspect.
3. The detail panel on the right shows the full license key string. Use the Copy button to copy it to the clipboard before sharing it.

Edit the comment on a license key

1. With the key selected, click the Comment field in the detail panel.
2. Type or paste the note (customer name, contract id, intended hardware, …).
3. Click outside the field or press Save to persist the change.

Note

The comment is the only editable field on a license key — license keys themselves are immutable. To change the licensee, validity, or features, issue a new key.

Caution

Treat the license key string as a credential. Anyone who possesses it can activate a runtime under the licensed account.
