Licensing a Development Machine

The way you license a development machine depends on the machine's operating system.

.NET Framework (Windows)

If the development machine runs Windows, it is licensed using the .NET framework. The installer or NuGet package automatically downloads and installs a license so no additional action is needed.

.NET Standard (Windows/Mac/Unix)

When licensing a development machine via the .NET standard (.NET Core/Mono/Xamarin), you must manually install a license for CData ADO.NET Provider for Snapchat Ads before using the provider.

.NET Core Install-License Tool

The install-license application is a .NET Core console application included in the toolkit. The application is located in the installation directory's lib/netstandard2.0 folder.

To use the install-license application to install a trial, enter the following command at the command line:

dotnet ./install-license.dll

To use the install-license application to install a full product key, enter the following command at the command line:

dotnet ./install-license.dll <license key>
