Marketplace settings
To access the Planon Marketplace, its settings need to be configured. This is done automatically via the Planon license.
Accessing the Planon Marketplace is achieved by using an access key. Each partner or customer will receive a specific account and access key from Planon.
 | If you do not want to use the Marketplace, make sure to disable it (see Step 3)! |
Procedure
1. Go to > .
If the settings here are empty, you can request a license update from Planon:
◦ The new license will disclose and specify the Marketplace settings.
◦ The connection to the Marketplace is automatically created.
◦ A customer-specific access key is specified.
2. Subsequently, these settings will be reflected in:
◦ the URL field, which will display the Planon Marketplace URL:
◦ The access key that you have been given by Planon.
| | On-premise customers must ensure that server access to planonsoftware.store is not blocked by a firewall. If this is the case, please ask your IT department to resolve this. If the server cannot access the Planon Marketplace, apps cannot be downloaded or updated. |
3. By default, the Planon Marketplace is enabled (Planon Marketplace enabled? field is Yes.)
If you do not want this, click Disable Planon Marketplace in the action panel; the settings will be cleared and no connection with the Planon Marketplace will be made. When you do this, the Planon Marketplace enabled? field will be set to No.
If you then would click Enable Planon Marketplace in the action panel again, your Planon license is checked for the Marketplace credentials. If these are found, the connection to the Marketplace is restored. When you do this, the Planon Marketplace enabled? field will be set to Yes.
4. In the Marketplace user group field, specify the user group to whom you want to make the Marketplace available.
| | If you do not specify a group, the Marketplace will be available to all users! |
5. In the Trial license user group field, specify the user group whose users are allowed to request a free trial of an app.
| | If you do not specify a group, nobody will be able to request a free trial. |
You can now open the Marketplace in your navigation panel.
