Distributing Your License Key

  • Updated

Once you have completed the Education or Business Registration Page and your license request has been approved, you will gain access to an admin panel where you can view your License Key, which will be required to grant access to Notability to your users.

Register for Education

Approvals are processed on business days. If you haven’t heard back from us in 72 hours, contact support at orgsupport@gingerlabs.com.

Copy the license key from your admin page and add it to your Notability MDM App Configuration per the documentation for your MDM platform.

Sample XML Configuration

Replace "true" with "false" to disable a feature, and insert your unique License Key.

To remove a cloud service as an export option, delete the entire <string>.

If you do not wish to restrict data flow to a specific domain, please remove those strings.

Some MDM platforms and tiers such as Jamf Pro don't require the <plist>. Instead, you would only keep the text between <dict> and </dict>.

Sample XML for macOS Deployment

For Mac deployments, an additional <key> is required. Don’t forget the extra <dict> & </dict> tags along with any additional configuration keys listed above.
