Embedded reporting tools online licensing overview

Starting with the version 2.x , Syncfusion introduced a new licensing system for the Bold Reports. You have to include the license token in your projects in order to use the Bold Reports assemblies. Note that the license token is different from the setup unlock key and that needs to be generated separately from the Bold Reports website. The below licensing error will be displayed if the license token is missing in your projects.

This application was built using a trial version of Bold Reports. Please include a valid license to permanently remove this license validation message. You can also obtain a free 30 day evaluation license to temporarily remove this message during the evaluation period.
