Provide API Access to Retrieve TestComplete License Usage Information from SLM
Current State
Currently, there is no API available to retrieve TestComplete license usage information from SmartBear License Management (SLM). The only supported approach is to automate the process by logging into SLM through the user interface.
Problem
Organizations need to monitor and report on TestComplete license usage to ensure licenses are being utilized effectively and to identify potential capacity issues.
Without an API, customers must rely on UI automation to access usage information. This approach is more complex, less reliable, and requires ongoing maintenance whenever the user interface changes.
Requested Enhancement
Provide a supported API that allows customers to programmatically retrieve TestComplete license usage information from SLM.
Examples of useful information include:
- Current license utilization
- Number of licenses in use
- Available licenses
- User/session details
- Historical usage data
- Usage trends and reporting metrics
Business Benefits
- Enables automated monitoring and reporting of TestComplete license usage.
- Simplifies integration with enterprise monitoring and reporting tools.
- Reduces reliance on fragile UI automation solutions.
- Improves visibility into license consumption and capacity planning.
- Supports proactive license management and optimization.
Use Case
Our organization needs to automatically monitor TestComplete license usage and generate reports on license consumption. An API would allow us to integrate SLM data into our monitoring and reporting processes without requiring browser-based automation of the SLM user interface.
