Authorize the deployment

In the 10.2.2 release the licensing process was been streamlined to make it easier for you to deploy the applications you have built with the SDK. It is no longer necessary to use the Software Authorization Wizard to authorize the deployment license code (e.g. RUD123456789) issued by Esri or obtained from the ArcGIS developers site.

Basic deployment license strings are no longer required. You can simply call ArcGISRuntime.Initialize() and it will assume a Basic license state.

For Standard level functionality, you still need to purchase a license but you now receive the full license string which can be passed straight into the SetLicense method on the ArcGISRuntime class. The Software Authorization Wizard which was previously included with the SDK has been removed, as has the LicenseViewer which displayed the license strings held locally on your machine.

License strings for Standard or Extension deployment licenses that you have already purchased are available at Esri Customer Service or, if you're located outside the United States, from your local Esri distributor.

To purchase new Standard or Extension licenses, contact your Esri representative or call Esri Sales directly at 800-447-9778 (U.S. only). If you're located outside the United States, contact your local Esri distributor.
