CustomerName - System Parameter

The CustomerName System Parameter holds the name of the licensee, the organization the Nodinite ProductKey is issued for. The two values form a pair: a product key is valid only with its customer name. You view and change both on the Manage License page, not in System Parameters.

Property Value
Key CustomerName
Data type string, for example Contoso
Default Entered on Manage License together with the ProductKey
Read by Web Client / Web API (licence check)
Takes effect When you save on Manage License
Status 🔒 Read-only (value never shown in System Parameters)

How It Works

  • Read-only here. System Parameters lists the key but never shows its value, and you can't edit it there. Change it under Administration › Settings › Manage License.
  • Part of the licence. The customer name is built into the ProductKey, so a new customer name always comes with a new product key. Enter both on Manage License; the name must match the licence exactly.
  • Shown in the Web Client. The Web Client header shows the customer name next to the environment; see Menu - Environment.
  • An invalid licence blocks the Web Client only. Background processes keep running.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I change the Customer Name?

Get a product key issued for the new name from the Nodinite Portal or Nodinite Support, then enter the new Customer Name and Product Key together on Manage License.

Why does Support ask for my Customer Name?

It identifies your licence. Give it when you contact Nodinite Support for faster help.
