How to include multiple ISV Licenses(.XML and .TXT) together in Build pipeline D365FO

Posted on by sabarni 35

Hi All,

I have received multiple ISV licenses from my client and few license files are in .txt and few files are in .xml extension. In my deployment environment, I am able to import .xml files based on the below scripts.

K:\AOSService\PackagesLocalDirectory\Bin\Microsoft.Dynamics.AX.Deployment.Setup.exe --setupmode importlicensefile --metadatadir K:\AOSService\PackagesLocalDirectory --bindir K:\AOSService\PackagesLocalDirectory --sqlserver . --sqldatabase AxDB --sqluser axdbadmin --sqlpwd xx --licensefilename C:\SM\License1.xml

K:\AOSService\PackagesLocalDirectory\Bin\Microsoft.Dynamics.AX.Deployment.Setup.exe --setupmode importlicensefile --metadatadir K:\AOSService\PackagesLocalDirectory --bindir K:\AOSService\PackagesLocalDirectory --sqlserver . --sqldatabase AxDB --sqluser axdbadmin --sqlpwd xx --licensefilename C:\SM\License2.txt

Now I need to add the same all licenses files to my deployable package. So, as per the few blogs, I have created a Licenses folder under my Azure devops Trunk path. Then uploaded the .xml& .txt license files under the same folder.

2. I have enabled Add Licenses To deployable package steps under my build pipeline.

Now my question is what should I specify on Search pattern for license file to add to the package portion. I have multiple extensions(.xml and .txt) license files. 

$(build.sourcesDirectory)\Licenses\*          ->will this script work?

Need your expert opinion. 

Thanks in advance.

    Hi Sabarni,

    You can find a very recent post about ISV licenses in Packages here: www.codecrib.com/.../isv-licenses-in-packages.html

    Probably the blog and referenced video will answer your question.

    Hi André ,

    Thanks for your response.

    As per this video , I have done all the setup but problem is as this blog only .txt license file I can attached to add deployable package. But my scenario is to add .txt & .xml file extension to the deployment package. Then if I add  $(build.sourcesDirectory)\Licenses\*    path to Search pattern for license file to add to the package--  will this syntax work or not ? Or do I to ask ISV client to provide only .TXT license file ?

    You can add multiple lines. So you can add one line for *.txt and one for *.xml. Your * may work as well, or maybe *.*. Should be easy enough to try! At the end of the video I explain how you can check the package to see if the licenses are actually in there.

    Yes Joris. It worked using $(build.sourcesDirectory)\Licenses\*  this script. Thanks for your suggestion.
