Dual Licensing support

All versions support both Kepler Cprime and Atlassian licenses, but you only need one valid license to run the pluginapp, which can is be provided as the blitzactions.lic file , or as the key generated via the Atlassian Marketplace.

The order in which the licenses are checked is:

  1. Atlassian LicenselicenseKepler License
  2. Cprime license

It is strongly recommended that you do not install both licenses at once, as this might yield unwanted results. For example, consider that you have an Atlassian License with the support date expired and one valid Kepler LicenseCprime License. In this case you cannot update the pluginapp, because the Atlassian License is checked first and its support date is expired.

Atlassian

Note

To support Atlassian licenses you need to install katl-commons 2.0.4+ before installing Blitz Actions.

The Atlassian Marketplace allows you to easily purchase or generate an evaluation license for Power Actions™ for Blitz ActionsJira.

Using Universal Plugin Manager 2.0.1+

After generating the license key, all you have to do is access the Administration - > Plugins section in your JIRA Jira instance and paste the key into the corresponding plugin app textbox.

Using an older version of the Universal Plugin Manager

If you are using an older version of the Universal Plugin Manager, we provide a custom page in Kepler General Parameters -> Licensing where you can install the Atlassian License. After installing the plugin, you have a 30 minute grace period to access the Licensing page and enter a valid license. If, however, after 30 minutes you do not have a valid license (Kepler or Atlassian) the plugin will disable itself.

Kepler Licensing

The Kepler license is a file (blitzactions.lic) which must be placed in the <JIRA_HOME>/kepler folder. You can either generate and download a free evaluation license by registering on our site and accessing the Licenses section, or you can purchase the plugin by following these instructions.

Don't forget that you need only one valid license to run the plugin.

Starting with katl-commons version 2.5.5 an new plugin, called Warden, will be automatically installed by any paid add-on (including Kepler Blitz Actions).
