Description
Keevault – License Manager and Telemetry Data Collection
Keevault – The all-in-one solution for software license verification and usage and telemetry data collection.
Generators
A versatile and powerful license key generation system allows you to generate keys in either UUID or chunk-system format. For instance, generating keys with four chunks, each consisting of four characters, will result in keys such as B4AD-EF5C-548D-90EF. Additionally, you have the option to call your own PHP generator function with minimal code required.
Products
Products can be categorized as internal or external (for Envato support). Create your product and configure it according to your preferences, which will later be utilized by the API.
With a strong emphasis on security, each product can possess its own private key for signing API responses, in addition to the global private key utilized for signing non-product-related API responses.
The purpose of the signature is to verify that the response received by your software originates from your own servers and not from a third party. Furthermore, a timestamp is included in all API responses to ensure the uniqueness of each signature, even if the data remains unchanged.
Downloadables/Product Updates/Versions
Create downloadable packages accessible through the API. When the access downloads endpoint is called, it will return a list of download links that can be accessed if the set requirements are met.
Examples of configurable requirements include:
- Requiring the license key to be assigned within a specified date range. This is useful if you want to grant your customers access to downloads created within one year of their purchase, for example.
- Managing license keys that expire before a certain date, which is useful for perpetual access or fallback licenses.
- Set a fixed cutoff date after which the package can no longer be accessed.
Activations
Assign a unique identifier to each activation, which could be a Device ID or a domain for web applications/plugins.
For domains/websites, an additional Post URL can be configured to send remote deactivation requests to the server where the product is deployed.
These remote deactivation requests are signed using the product’s private key to ensure that your software can verify the request’s origin and authenticate that it originates from your servers.
API Keys
You have the option to bind an API key to a specific IP address or allow access from anywhere. Each API endpoint requires its own permission to be enabled to be accessible.
API Settings
API access can be restricted by blocking IPs and identifiers (such as device IDs and domains). Additionally, download links can be restricted to a specific user agent, in addition to the existing global API restrictions.
API Endpoints
With 25 endpoints available for both product and internal use, you can license your products and seamlessly integrate the license manager with third-party tools.
