# Activation | Read Me!

For the plugins in this category you must have an internet connection used for validation and update checking[**\***](#user-content-fn-1)[^1] unless explicitly stated otherwise.

Every plugin has to be activated using a license key. You can get one in my Discord server @ <https://support.aeonxd.xyz>

### 🔑 How to get a key?

1. Join the Discord server: <https://support.aeonxd.xyz>
2. Go to the **#bot-commands** channel
3. Use **/key get \<platform\_name> \<username> \<transaction\_id> \[plugin\_name]**

{% hint style="info" %}
Arguments surrounded by **<>** are required, **\[]** are optional\
\
\&#xNAN;**\<platform\_name>**\
The platform you purchased the plugin on (**BuiltByBit** | **Polymart**)

\
\&#xNAN;**\<username>**\
Your username on the platform\
\
\&#xNAN;**\<transaction\_id>**\
BuiltByBit: Your TID starts with **tbx** (if paid with PayPal, it's your Invoice ID)\
Polymart: The email you used to purchase the plugin\
\
\&#xNAN;**\[plugin\_name]**\
Specify a plugin to look a key for
{% endhint %}

### 🚧 Key not found?

* Check for typos and case sensitivity
* Request a key with **/key request \<platform\_name> \<username> \<transaction\_id> \[plugin\_name]**
* Check back at a later time
* Contact support (create a ticket)

### 🔓 Activation

1. Start your server and let the plugin generate the configuration files
2. Paste your license key in the **license-key** field in **.../plugins/.../config.yml**
3. Restart your server
