Dual Licensing support

User Group Picker PRO plugin supports both Kepler and Atlassian licenses, but you only need one valid license to run the plugin, which can either be provided as the usergrouppicker-pro.lic file, or as the key generated via the Atlassian Marketplace.

The order in which the licenses are checked is:

1. Atlassian License
2. Kepler 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 License. In this case you cannot update the plugin, 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 User Group Picker PRO.

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 instance and paste the key into the corresponding plugin 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 (usergrouppicker-pro.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.

You can view details for your kepler license by accessing the Kepler Licenses page from Kepler General Parameters -> Licensing menu:

The page shows the expiration and maintenance date, user limit and validity message for each selected kepler license.

If the license is expired, user limit is exceeded or license is targeted for a different JIRA server id, a red colored message shows the status.

If kepler license is close to expiration date (less than 10 days remaining), a warning message is displayed, showing the remaining time.
