Licensing
Umbraco UI Builder is a commercial product. You can run an Umbraco UI Builder unrestricted locally without the need a license. Running Umbraco UI Builder on a public domain will display a warning banner in the backoffice and will limit usage to a single editable collection. To remove these restrictions, you'll need to have a valid license.
Licenses are sold per backoffice domain and will also work on all subdomains. If you have alternative staging/qa environment domains, additional domains can be added to the license on request.
The licenses are not bound to a specific product version. They will work for all versions of the related product.
Let's say that you have a license configured for your domain,
mysite.com
, and you've requested two development domains, devdomain.com
and devdomain2.com
.The license will cover the following domains:
localhost
*.local
*.mysite.com
www.mysite.com
devdomain.com
www.devdomain.com
devdomain2.com
www.devdomain2.com
You can have only 1 license per Umbraco installation.
There are a few differences as to what the licenses cover:
- A single license covers the installation of Umbraco UI Builder in 1 production backoffice domain, as well as in any requested development domains.
- The production domain includes all subdomains (e.g.
*.mysite.com
). - The development domains work with or without the
www
subdomain. - The license allows for an unlimited number of editable collections.
- The license also includes
localhost
and*.local
as a valid domain.
If you have multiple backoffice domains pointing at the same installation, you can purchase and add additional domains to your license.
This is an add-on domain for existing licenses. Refunds will not be given for this product.
You can purchase a license via the Umbraco UI Builder project page. A member of the Sales team will manage this process. In the process, you will need to provide all domains you wish to have covered by the license such as primary and staging/qa domains. You should then receive a license code to be installed in your solution.
If you require to add additional domains to the license, please reach out to a member of the Sales team. They will manage your request and take care of the process.
Once you have received your license code it needs to be installed on your site.
- 1.Open the root directory for your project files.
- 2.Locate and open the
appSettings.json
file. - 3.Add your Umbraco UI builder license key to

:
"Umbraco": {
"Licenses": {
