Activate license

Paste your license key and machine enrollment material. The API will return a signed license file for the desktop app. This form is ready; backend activate endpoint may still be staging.

Don't have a license yet? Pay on aspera.bond to get one.

Preferred: Windows CNG MS_PLATFORM_CRYPTO_PROVIDER public key. Private TPM material never leaves the device and must never be pasted here.

Save the signed license file as %LocalAppData%\Aspera\licenses\<product>.lic.json (e.g. %LocalAppData%\Aspera\licenses\shipmaster.lic.json). The desktop app reads it from there. Never paste or share private keys — only the public license JSON is needed.
