Dual Licensing Support

Versions 2.0.4 and up support both Appfire and Atlassian licenses, but you only need one valid license to run the app, which can be provided as the jjupin.lic file or as the key generated via the Atlassian Marketplace.

The order in which the licenses are checked is:

  1. Atlassian license

  2. Appfire 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 Appfire License. In this case you cannot update the app, because the Atlassian License is checked first and its support date is expired.

Atlassian Licensing

The Atlassian Marketplace allows you to easily purchase or generate an evaluation license for Power Scripts™ for Jira.

After generating the license key, all you have to do is access the Administration > Plugins section in your Jira instance and paste the key into the corresponding app textbox.
For more information see UPM documentation.

Appfire Licensing

To apply Appfire licensing:

  1. Contact our support to obtain this file. 

  2. Copy the file to the <JIRA_HOME>/kepler folder.

  3. Ensure that Jira has read and write access to the file.

  4. Restart Jira.

Appfire License Page

To check the validity of our apps:

  1. In your Jira, go to Administration > Add-ons.

  2. Select Power Apps Plugins Configuration > Licensing menu.
    The Appfire Licenses page shows the expiration and maintenance date, user limit and validity message for each license, including warnings that reflect the current status of all your licenses.

Reminder

In order to make sure that your Jira installation is safe even if you forget to renew your license, in Power Scripts™ for Jira we let the runtime execute your scripts as configured, however, the configuration and administration pages will be disabled. 

Removing an Unused License

If you want to remove an Atlassian license that you no longer use, use UPM (for UPM 2.0.1+) or remove the old license key and click Update. 

To remove a Appfire license, delete the correspondent .lic file from the Kepler folder. Note that any change to the Appfire license requires a server restart.
