    on the license card and copy the token. It is shown once and isn't stored.

  4. 4
    Give it to the gateway.

    Paste it into the admin console under Install token (a cluster shares it with every node), or set the environment variable LAMBOGENIUS_LICENSE. LAMBOGENIUS_LICENSE_FILE, or file under [license], can name a file holding it instead.

How the check works

  • Offline: the token is checked against a public key built into the gateway. Nothing is sent to Lambogenius. A new token takes effect within 5 minutes, without a restart.
  • Expiry: the license keeps working for a grace period after it expires (7 days for developer licenses, 14 for the others), with warnings in the log and the console. Generate a new token after each renewal.
  • Without a valid license: every new message gets an AR that explains why. Messages already queued are still delivered, and the admin console keeps working, so you can install a token.
  • Separate from the Logic Apps connectors: gateway tokens don't unlock the HL7 connectors for Azure Logic Apps, and connector tokens don't unlock the gateway.
