Set your license key using a .NET Core appsettings.json file

To apply a license key globally within a .NET Core application, follow these steps:

• Add a JSON file named appsettings.json in the root directory of your project.
• Add a IronPPT.LicenseKey entry to your JSON configuration file. Set its value to your specific license key.
• Ensure that the file properties include Copy to Output Directory: Copy always.

File: appsettings.json

{
    "IronPPT.LicenseKey": "IronPPT.MYLICENSE.KEY.1EF01"
}

Step 3: Validate Your License Key

Verify the Installed License Key

To verify whether the license key has been applied correctly, check the IsLicensed property. Use the following code snippet:

:path=/static-assets/ppt/content-code-examples/get-started/license-keys-is-licensed.cs

// THIS CODE SNIPPET IS NOT AVAILABLE!

' THIS CODE SNIPPET IS NOT AVAILABLE!

Validate the License Key

Ensure the validity of your license or trial key using this code snippet:

:path=/static-assets/ppy/content-code-examples/get-started/license-keys-is-valid.cs

// THIS CODE SNIPPET IS NOT AVAILABLE!

' THIS CODE SNIPPET IS NOT AVAILABLE!

If the return value is true, it means the key is valid, and you can proceed with using IronPPT. If it returns false, the key is invalid.
