In order to license SciChart.js and unlock all its features, there is a simple procedure that must be followed. Without this you won’t be able to run or deploy applications built with SciChart.js. Licenses are unique to all SciChart products, so licenses for another products cannot be used for SciChart JavaScript Charts and vice versa.
Please be aware before starting usage of the SciChart software constitutes acceptance of the licensing terms & conditions. SciChart is licensed per-developer with a royalty-free redistribution rights for your applications. A helpful licensing FAQ can be found here.
If you wish to purchase a paid SciChart license, you can do so at the store.scichart.com. Likewise, you can download the framework at our scichart.com/downloads page.
To try out SciChart.js, you will first need to start a trial. You can do this using our cross-platform licensing wizard which is common to all SciChart platforms.
Download the licensing wizard from here and install on your Mac desktop.
Next, log in to the Licensing Wizard using your scichart.com username and password. If you do not have an yet, you can create one here.
Once logged in, click “Start Trial” on the Trials tab for SciChart.js.
Your SciChart.js applications on localhost will search for the licensing wizard to validate the trial license locally. Leave the licensing wizard open or minimise to tray while developing!
If you have purchased SciChart.js, you should have received a confirmation e-mail with a Developer Serial key and Runtime key. You can also view purchased license keys and serials in your Profile Page. If you don’t have one, please contact SciChart Sales.
To activate a developer license so that you can unlock the full version of SciChart.js, download the cross platform licensing wizard and install on your Windows or Mac desktop.
Once installed, and you have logged in with scichart.com account, you can activate the developer serial you received when you purchased.
After activation you will see your license status on the wizard homepage.
Note: Your SciChart.js applications on localhost will search for the licensing wizard validate the trial license locally. Leave the licensing wizard open or minimise to tray while developing!
When you have a paid SciChart.js developer license, to deploy an application to a domain you need to register that domain with your account.
First, set set a domain at scichart.com/profile:
Next, generate a Runtime Key also at scichart.com/profile.
The Runtime Key must be placed in your application once before any SciChartSurface is shown or instantiated, for example in a Root component in a React App.
Code samples below:
// Set a runtime key in JavaScript once before any SciChartSurface is created
SciChartSurface.setRuntimeLicenseKey("YOUR_RUNTIME_KEY_HERE");
Note: You can register a single domain for each developer license you have purchased. Site licenses or company-global licenses can register unlimited domains.
Make sure you update your runtime keys after adding a new domain!
