Verify License

This action reads the activated license and executes the actions nested below this action only if a certain license type is used.

	Tip
	Verify License action provides protection of your trigger configuration from being run on unauthorized machines.

	Note
	License key that activates software can also encode the Solution ID. This is the unique number that identifies the solution provider that sold the Loftware license.

If the configured Solution ID matches the Solution ID encoded in the license, the target machine is permitted to run nested actions, effectively limiting execution to licenses sold by the solution provider.

The triggers can be further encrypted and locked so only authorized users are allowed to open the configuration. For more information, see section Protecting Trigger Configuration in Loftware Automation user guide.

About group identifies the selected action.

Name: allows you to define a custom action name. This makes actions easily recognizable on the solution's list of actions. By default, the action name is taken from its type.
Description: custom information about the action. Enter a description to explain the purpose and role of action in a solution.
Action type: read-only information about the selected action type.

License Information group allows you to select the license ID.

License ID: defines the ID number of the licenses that are allowed to run the nested actions.
- If the entered value is not the License ID that is encoded in the license, the nested actions is not executed.
- If the entered value is set to 0, the actions execute if a valid license is found.

	Note
	Digital Partner UID can also be used as License ID. This option is available for members of Loftware Digital Partner Program.

Action Execution and Error Handling

Each action can be set as a conditional action. Conditional actions only run when the defined conditions allow them to be run. To define these conditions, click Show execution and error handling options.

Execution options are:

Enabled: specifies if the action is enabled or disabled. Only enabled actions will execute. This functionality may be used while testing a form.
Condition: defines one-line programming expression that must provide a Boolean value (true or false). When the result of the expression is true, the action will execute. Condition offers a way to avoid executing actions every time.

Error handling options are:

Ignore failure: specifies whether an error should be ignored or not. With Ignore failure option enabled, the execution of actions continues even if the current action fails.

	Note
	Nested actions that depend on the current action do not execute in case of a failure. The execution of actions continues with the next action on the same level as the current action. The error is logged but does not break the execution of the action.

Example 83. Example

At the end of printing, you might want to send the status update to an external application using HTTP Request action. If the printing action fails, action processing stops. In order to execute the reporting even after the failed print action, the Print Label action must have the option Ignore failure enabled.

Save error to variable: allows you to select or create a variable to save the error to. The same cause of the error is also saved to internal variables ActionLastErrorId and ActionLastErrorDesc.
