OpenLM connector

TeamViewer DEX Platform 26.3 Red x | 1E Platform 23.11 Green checkmark | 1E Platform on-premises 9.x Green checkmark

The OpenLM connector connects to an OpenLM database server.

The OpenLM connector is a preview feature to demonstrate how 1E can collect license data from OpenLM. Currently, the collected data can be viewed only by using SQL queries and cannot be viewed in the 1E Platform or its consumer applications. License data from OpenLM is not merged with entitlement data used by AppClarity. The connector will be updated in future versions of 1E to support ongoing changes by OpenLM as they migrate from their XML-based API to their new REST-based API. Contact your 1E Account Team if you need more information about using this feature.
