Ceedo Client Management – Activation Flow
User / Ceedo Client
CCMS
CLS
Client identifies with unique ID
CCMS asks client to register
User provides credentials
CCMS request a license for the ID
CLS returns a license if limit not reached
CCMS sends verification email to the user
User uses email to activate client
CCMS returns CLS response and permission
CCMS registers the user with unique ID
New IDs increase activation count per user up to predefined limit
Ceedo runs only if it received both permission (valid token) from CCMS and a valid license from CLS
