Return Variables

The CheckHistoryJob CheckLicenseJob template returns the following variables:

.. Licence tpye: COMMERCIAL_VALID
.. license valid: true
.. License valid from: Wed May 05 12:22:41 GMT 2021
.. License valid to: Mon May 04 12:22:41 GMT 2026

...

The CheckLicenseJob template can be used to implement a workflow to alert about license expiration:

• Jobs based on the CheckHistoryJob CheckLicenseJob template do not fail if the underlying query does not return resultscheck proves an expired license.
• Instead, the CheckHistoryJob CheckLicenseJob template provides Return Variables that can be inspected to determine further execution of jobs in a workflow.
• JS7 offers the JS7 - If Instruction to check the values of Return Variables and to decide what instructions to execute next.
