License Installation Workflow

Single Offer, Multiple Offers, and Pay-As-You-Go Licensing Models

Here is the typical workflow for the creation and the installation of a
third-party license for an extension using the single offer, multiple
offers, or pay-as-you-go licensing models in Plesk:

Step by step description of the above diagram:

  1. A customer comes to Plesk Online Store and orders a new third-party
    license.

  2. Plesk Online Store takes care of payment but delegates creation of
    the new license to KA.

  3. KA calls the ISV endpoint with License Creation/Renewal/Upgrade
    Request
    (the PURCHASE action) to request a new
    license, and, after a successful response, stores the body of the
    license in the KA database.

  4. Finally, the customer gets an activation code for a newly created
    license.

  5. The customer goes to Tools & Settings > License Management in
    the Plesk user interface, goes to the Additional License Keys
    tab, clicks Install Key, and then enters the activation code:

  6. Plesk connects to KA to retrieve the license body by the entered
    activation code.

  7. When the license is successfully installed, Plesk extension can
    retrieve it using Plesk
    SDK
    .

Individual Offers Licensing Model

Here is the typical workflow for the creation and delivery of a
third-party license for an extension using the individual offers
licensing model in Plesk:

image 78961

A step-by-step description of the above diagram:

  1. A customer (Plesk administrator or a Plesk end user) logs in to
    Plesk. The customer selects a domain or a website and chooses the
    desired product among the products offered by the extension.
  2. The extension generates an unique token that will be associated with
    the order and will be used through the entire workflow.
  3. The customer is forwarded to Plesk Online Store to complete his or
    her order. The token is passed as one of the query string parameters.
  4. The Online Store processes the payment, notifies KA about the
    purchase, and passes the token to KA.
  5. KA calls the ISV endpoint with a License Creation/Renewal/Upgrade
    Request
    (the PURCHASE action) passing the token
    inside the ACTIVATION_DATA parameter.
  6. The extension checks the status of the order on the ISV side using
    the token. When the order is ready for fulfillment, the extension
    executes it (e.g. delivers the product to the selected
    domain/website).
  7. The protocol used to check the status of the order is not specified
    and can vary from extension to extension.
