Can’nX Cloud: project options, after buying a license on the Can’nX shop
A license purchased on the Can’nX shop, for example for a Link’nX integration such as Sonos, Nuki or 2N, is activated by adding its serial key to the project in Can’nX Cloud (can-nx.cloud). It then applies to the project that contains the gateway.
Intended for the administrator or installer who manages the project in Can’nX Cloud. To understand the padlock on a Link’nX card, see the Link’nX navigation guide.
Before you start
Section titled “Before you start”- You have access to the can-nx.shop account used for the purchase.
- Your Can’nX Cloud account shows the project’s Options button. Without this button, ask the person in charge of the project to activate the license.
Find the serial key
Section titled “Find the serial key”The shop labels below are those of its French pages, followed by their meaning.
-
Sign in to your account on can-nx.shop.
-
In Votre compte (Your account), open CLÉS DE SÉRIE (serial keys).
-
Locate the license by Nom du produit (product name) and Réf de commande (order reference), then copy its value in the Clés de série (serial keys) column. The État de la clé (key status) column shows whether it has already been activated.
Keep the key confidential and hide it on any screenshot.
