Licensing MKE4

Obtain your MKE4 license

Install the MKE CLI prior to downloading your MKE4 license.

2. Click Environments in the top navigation bar of the MKE web UI.

3. Click the Cloud Name that is associated with the license you want to download.

4. Scroll down to License Information and click the License File URL. A new tab opens in your browser.

5. Click View file to download your license file.

Add the license

1. Log in to the MKE web UI with an administrator account.

2. In the left-side navigation panel, navigate to Admin Settings -> License.

3. Insert the license into the license key field. To do this, click Choose File and navigate to the .lic file you previously downloaded. Alternately, you can copy-paste the contents of the .lic file into the field as a text string.

   

4. Click Save settings to update the MKE4 license.
