Example Response (typical)

{
    "status": "success",
    "message": "License key has been reactivated successfully.",
    "data": {
        "uuid": "019b17ae-09be-72e2-886a-ee2a6ec07af8",
        "status": "active",
        "message": "License has been reactivated successfully."
    },
    "errors": null
}

Our API returns both:

• a top-level success message, and

• a data.message that describes the reactivation result.

Access Rules

DevPayr validates the request in the following order:

1) API key must be allowed to manage the project

Project-scoped API keys

• If your API key is scoped to a project, it must match {project}.

Error (403)

{ "message": "This API key is not allowed to manage this project." }

Global API keys

• If your API key is global, it must belong to the owner of the project.

Error (403)

2) License must belong to the project

If the license is not tied to the project:

Error (403)

{ "message": "This license does not belong to the specified project." }

3) License must be revoked before reactivating

You can only reactivate a revoked license.

Error (403)

{ "message": "License Key has to be revoked first before you can reactivate it." }

4) License must not be expired

If the license has an expiration date and it is already in the past, reactivation is blocked.

Error (403)
