License Keys

The pricing model we think is most suited for an squid by arc46 use case - based on the amount of entities retrieved in one request - cannot be implemented with the existing ServiceNow license models.

This forced us to create our own license key mechanism. We recognize the inconvenience and will switch to a more streamlined approach as soon as ServiceNow supports more options.

License Key Structure

A license key has the following structure:
instanceName-100000-31122026-true-8a62a6d5eab324e77ed4c445a534d25c

instanceName is a potentially comma seperated list of instanceNames for which this license is valid.
100000 is the amount of entities that may be retrieved per request.
31122026 is the date till which the license is valid. This date is UTC, but we would prefer you renew a license before its last hour.
true is a boolean value indicating if this license is valid for production instances.
8a62a6d5eab324e77ed4c445a534d25c is a hash that ensures that the given license is valid.

The above license key translates to: Instance instanceName is allowed to retrieve 100000 entities per request until the 31.12.2026 23:59:59 UTC on production and non-production machines.

System Property x_a46gh_squidx.licenseKey

The license key must be set as system property x_a46gh_squidx.licenseKey.
