The default is "https://licensing.pdf-tools.com/api/v1/licenses/" for the online Pdftools Licensing Service. If you plan to use the Licensing Gateway Service instead of the Pdftools Licensing Service, the property’s value must be a URI with the following elements:

http[s]://[‹user›[:‹password›]@]‹host›[:‹port›]

Where:

• http/https: Protocol for connection to the Licensing Gateway Service.
• ‹user›:‹password› (optional): Credentials for connection to the Licensing Gateway Service (basic authorization).
• ‹host›: Hostname of the Licensing Gateway Service.
• ‹port›: Port for connection to the Licensing Gateway Service.

Example: "http://localhost:9999"
