License Types
There are two types of licenses available for io.Manager - a trial license and a paid license:
| License Type | Purpose | Behavior at Expiration | 
|---|---|---|
| Paid | For development, staging, UAT, and production environment usage. | After the license expires, io.Manager will start logging warning messages, but will continue operating normally. | 
| Trial | For PoC usage. | After the license expires, io.Manager will stop operating completely. | 
Applying the License Key
The license key can be passed to io.Manager via the licenseKey property of the configuration object for initializing io.Manager, or via the API_LICENSE_KEY environment variable, depending on your deployment approach.
The following example demonstrates passing the license key when initializing io.Manager:
import { start } from "@interopio/manager";
const config = {
    licenseKey: "my-license-key"
};
const server = await start(config);The following example demonstrates passing the license key using an environment variable:
API_LICENSE_KEY=my-license-key
