Epicor License Usage Monitoring

[masuphiber (Manuel Sudermann)]

Hi everyone,
We recently got a web license and I am trying to modify all my API calls to use this license so that I don’t depend on the amount of users logged into Epicor.

This is my Postman request, I am passing a ClaimedLicense (Web License code from another post). Is there a way I can check if it’s actually using this license?
An easy way to monitor where I don’t have to go in the logs and hunt down line 9999 of some mysterious file?

Thank you!

This will take some hunting since I think the usage will happen so fast that getting it in session management will be elusive.
Set this trace flag in Appserver.config

will get you entries like this.

this thread has the sessiontypes to verify you are getting the web.

Lazy again - anyone know what I could use instead of SessionMod.Login?

For the curious, this is my code block in the BPM. (Yes, I did a code block; I guess I cringed at the 5 nested if statements that would be the alternative.) And yes, the code really does thank @josecgomez. Gotta give credit. // Thank you Jose: https://www.epiusers.help/t/epicor-license-guids/61669 switch (this.Session.SessionType.ToString().ToUpper()) { case "00000003-B615-4300-957B-34956697F040": MySessionType = "Default"; break; case "00000003-B8EB-40C4-8897-248CB30C5D47": MySe…

That header isn’t set correct so no it won’t be using that license I don’t have it handy but search around you must pass the license as part of a different header

Should be like this

@t.mattick

Name": "License",

 "License": "{\"ClaimedLicense\":\"00000003-b615-4300-957b-34956697f040\"}",

Hello @gpayne ,
Thank you very much for your response.
I followed your advice and added it to the trace file. Do you have any suggestions where the trace files for this might be located? I am making postman calls, are these appearing anywhere?

Thanks!

@masuphiber

are these appearing anywhere?

The server log.

[gpayne (Greg Payne)]

make sure logging is on, so the trace flag happens. From EAC

then as @klincecum points out they will be in the server folder of your application directory. something like this.

[masuphiber (Manuel Sudermann)]

I enabled that and added the line you suggested above

The line exists twice now I guess

But not getting any results in the config file specified in the location you showed in Application Server Settings.
Got any suggestions?

[gpayne (Greg Payne)]

What does the top of your appserver.config look like. disabled false is key.

The files will be like this

[masuphiber (Manuel Sudermann)]

Thank you!
We are on the same page, everything is enabled and the same. I found those files too, but I can’t find anything tagged licenses.
Is there perhaps a Rest API flag I need to enable before I can see the license tag in the trace logs?

[gpayne (Greg Payne)]

There is a rest api flag, so maybe if you copy and uncomment it.

If you login to Epicor you should at least see a license entry from your logon.

[masuphiber (Manuel Sudermann)]

Very helpful, thank you very much. For some reason I wasn’t aware that it was all in HTML, so the license tag was also commented. I really appreciate your help, I can now see the license ids!

[gpayne (Greg Payne)]

Awesome, If this is solved then mark a solution.
