--- myst: html_meta: "description lang=en": "Stub Kasm Workspaces Activation key notes." "keywords": "Kasm, Activation" "property=og:locale": "en_US" --- ```{note} If you have an {term}`Activation Key ` it can be passed to the installation script and activation will be completed on your behalf as part of the install. Create a file for the {term}`Activation Key ` e.g. `activation_key.txt` and paste in the {term}`Activation Key ` you received in you confirmation email. When running the install.sh use the parameter `-a or --activation-key-file` so your command might look something like this `sudo bash kasm_release/install.sh -a activation_key.txt`. This will not work with an offline air-gapped install, as Kasm Workspaces must contact an activation server to complete licensing your installation. In a multi server install this option only applies to the database role. ```
