# Activate license

## **Summary**

When **Boombox** is first installed a **License Key** is required to activate and finalize the process. You can **log in** and **out** of your License Key and easily switch to a different workstation.

## **Open Application**

**Boombox** supports **Adobe After Effects** and **Adobe Premiere**. See [**System Requirements**](/master.md#system-requirements) for more information about the Creative Cloud versions supported.

{% hint style="danger" %}
**We recommend using Boombox in Adobe Premiere using a rendered video for the best experience. Adobe Premiere is best suited to handle audio and video playback.**
{% endhint %}

## **Launch Boombox**

To open Boombox, go to your **Application Bar > Window > Extensions > Boombox**

{% hint style="info" %}
Boombox is resizable, scalable and dockable. **Drag and drop** the Boombox window anywhere in your application Workspace.
{% endhint %}

## Enter license key

When Boombox is opened for the first time, a **License Key** is required to **log in** and finalize your installation. 

### Get license key

You can get your License Key from your Checkout Email.\
If you forgot your License Key, you can recover it on our [**License Recovery**](https://mtmograph.com/pages/license-recovery) page

## Confirm license

After a valid License Key is pasted into Boombox, the Extension will verify the number of installs/seats available and log in. 

{% hint style="info" %}
After the first valid **Login** Boombox can work in **Offline Mode** for 7 days. After that, an internet connection is needed to re-validate the license. 
{% endhint %}

### Multiple Seats

If the License Key is valid, but the Seat Count is reached. Boombox will prompt you with a license manager screen where you can log in or out of workstations using your License Key.

### Failed license check

If the License Key check fails, a couple of situations may have happened:

1. The License Key isn't real, or entered incorrectly
2. The workstation has no internet connection to verify the license

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://boombox.mtmograph.com/general/activate.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
