How to view license information on the command line

From the command line, you can use the -L --query command to view information about the active and reserve license keys added to the application as well as the license provided under your subscription to use the application.

To view information about the license keys and license on the device, run the following command:

kfl-control -L --query [--json]

where --json outputs data in JSON format. If the --json option is not specified, the settings are output in the INI format.
