Web Service Licensing

[RichardLoughins]

Hi all, just looking to know if exposing an object as a web service qualifies as using a full license, or how does licensing work with web services on Blue Prism?  I was led to believe that exposing a single process or object does utilize a license but this seems a bit of a waste considering the cost of a license.

It only consumes a license when something calls the web service. While Blue Prism is not normally trigger based, web services and CLI commands are the exception. Sessions that are generated by either approach do not consume a license until the call is made. Each web service call will spin up a new session.
