Using IronXL for Python License Keys
How to Get a License Key
Adding an IronXL license key allows you to deploy your project live without restrictions or watermarks.
You can buy a license key or sign up for a free 30 day trial key here.
Step 1: Add IronXL as a Dependency in Your Python Project
To integrate the IronXL library into your Python project, you must install it as a dependency using the widely used Python package management tool, pip. Open the terminal and execute the following command:
This will install the specified version of IronXL in your project, making it accessible for import.
Step 2: Apply Your License Key
Next, you need to apply your license key or trial key by setting the LicenseKey attribute at the beginning of your Python script, before utilizing IronXL.
# Apply your license key
License.LicenseKey = "IRONXL-MYLICENSE-KEY-1EF01"
Step 3: Validate Your License Key
Verify the Installed License Key
To verify whether the license key has been applied correctly, you can check the IsLicensed attribute of the License module. Use the following code snippet:
# Check if the license key has been applied
is_licensed = License.IsLicensed
Validate the License Key
To ensure the validity of your license or trial key, you can use the following code snippet:
# Check if a given license key string is valid
is_valid = License.IsValidLicense("IRONXL-MYLICENSE-KEY-1EF01")
If the return value is True, it means the key is valid, and you can proceed with using IronXL. However, if the return value is False, it indicates that the key is invalid.
