Custom Properties
Custom properties allow you to add arbitrary additional information to NetLicensing entities. This can be useful to link with other subsystems like CMS or ERP. Custom properties can be added (modified, removed) when creating or updating entities. All standard property names such as "name", "number", "active" etc., are reserved and can’t be used for custom properties. Custom properties can’t hold empty values.
To add custom property on create or update, include it together with other properties as POST method parameter:
Request
POST https://go.netlicensing.io/core/v2/rest/licensee
productNumber=Ptrybuy-DEMO&crmCustomerId=cust1234
Accept: application/xml
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Response
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<netlicensing

<property name="productNumber">Ptrybuy-DEMO</property>
<property name="crmCustomerId">cust1234</property>
<property name="inUse">true</property>
</item>
