Import License window

The Import File button in the Workbench License Manager is always enabled, and opens the Import License window for you to navigate to a source file (.license or .lar).

Only two types of files appear for selection.

Figure 1. Import License dialog to find local license file or license archive file


To add to (or update in) your local license database, select a license file and click OK . A popup window confirms success, and the license(s) are added or updated in your database.

Figure 2. Import success


If any of the license(s) you select to import are older than the ones currently in your local database, meaning that the generated attribute timestamp is earlier, newer license(s) in your local license database are not overwritten. However, the same Import successful message popup appears for such file import operations.
