Though not recommended for general use, the Web Service for activation is publicly accessible.

	{
	   object[] results = this.EndInvoke(asyncResult);
	   return ((string)(results[0]));

 }

This can then be used by code like this:

LicenseService licensing = new LicenseService();
string result = licensing.GetLicense("1234ABCD", "8.0", "Your Licence Key", "CustInfo1", "CustInfo2", "Type");

For increased resilience, you may modify the code to set the URL property from the calling code, and use the following endpoints in turn in case of failure.

Note

The result is either an authentication string (for use in ActivateOffline) on the target machine or a string beginning “ERROR” if there is a problem. Exceptions may of course also be thrown and may need to be caught. The MachineID (shown as 1234ABCD in the above example) needs to be obtained from a DicomLicense.MachineID on the target machine or from the Licence activation Offline tab (Detailed explanation can be found here).
