Flexera Local Identifier Dialog Box

AdminStudio 2023 | 25.0 | Application Manager

Important:Creating a local Flexera Identifier requires FlexNet Manager Suite 2015 R2 SP3 or later.

When an application is imported into the Application Catalog, AdminStudio automatically queries the FlexNet Manager Suite ARL and attempts to obtain the application’s Flexera Identifier. If an application still does not have an assigned Flexera Identifier, you can perform a manual search of the FlexNet Manager Suite Application Recognition Library, as described in Performing a Manual Search for a Flexera Identifier to attempt to identify an existing entry.

However, if you cannot locate an existing entry, you can create a new local Flexera Identifier entry for the FlexNet Manager Suite Application Recognition Library by clicking the Create New button on the Flexera Identifier dialog box to open the Flexera Local Identifier dialog box.
