FLEXNET OPERATIONS SOAP WEB SERVICES GUIDE

FlexNet Operations Web Services Guide

Method: linkAddonLineItems

Description

The linkAddonLineItems operation takes one or many devices and links entitlement line items to the devices.

To link a line item on a simple entitlement to a device, the entitlement must belong to the same soldTo and the product must use the same host type as the device. When a web register key is linked, it will be redeemed and the soldTo of the device will be assigned to the simple entitlement line item that is created.

If linking for a device fails, then the failed devices are displayed in the response data.

The linkAddonLineItems operation can also be used to remove metered licenses. In this case, as a prerequisite, the configuration Allow Removing or Reducing Metered Features From a License Server must be selected (under System > Configure > Embedded Devices > Host Options) in the Producer Portal.
