Activation#

Quadrant IntegrityLens requires a valid license key. After purchasing a license, activate it once on each computer where you use the tool.

Purchasing a license#

Visit the purchase page to buy a license:

Purchase a license

After payment you will receive a license key starting with QIL-.

Activating your license#

  1. Run the activate command#

    integritylens license activate QIL-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX

    Replace QIL-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX with the key you received. The tool contacts the license server, validates the key, and stores it on your computer.

  2. Analyse documents#

    Once activated, all analysis commands work normally:

    integritylens document.pdf

License status#

Check the current license status at any time:

integritylens license status

This shows the masked license key, activation date, last validation date, and the remaining offline grace period.

Deactivating a license#

To remove the stored license key from a computer:

integritylens license deactivate

Offline use#

After a successful validation, Quadrant IntegrityLens can be used offline for up to 3 days. After that, an internet connection is required for re-validation. The offline grace period resets with every successful online validation.

CI / headless environments#

In automated environments where interactive activation is not practical, set the INTEGRITYLENS_LICENSE_KEY environment variable instead:

export INTEGRITYLENS_LICENSE_KEY="QIL-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX"

The environment variable takes priority over any stored license file. Note that the env-var path always requires an internet connection (no offline grace).
