Elastic Access License Model

Producers must create a specific license model for Elastic Access (using the license model type “Dynamic Monetization | Elastic Access”) to be able to create tokens. This license model must be used when creating line items for tokens, because only line items created with such a license model will be mapped to an Elastic Access instance.

The Elastic Access license model is a metered consumptive model: once the tokens in a line item are exhausted, new tokens must be sold to the end customer.

Important:Line items created with the license model type “Dynamic Monetization” may not be mapped to any other service, such as FlexNet Embedded license servers or devices, because they will be automatically mapped to Dynamic Monetization.

License models for line items containing tokens must also set the attribute elastic to true.
