Setup
Setup guide
- 11. In Switchy, open your workspace settings and navigate to the MCP Integrations section. 2. Click 'Add Integration' and select Labs64 NetLicensing from the developer tools category. 3. You'll be prompted to enter an API key — generate one in your NetLicensing console under API Settings with at least read permissions for products and licenses. 4. Paste the key into Switchy and click 'Connect'. 5. Switchy will validate the key by attempting to list products; if successful, the integration appears as active. 6. Open any Space, type '@Labs64 NetLicensing list all active licenses' and send — if you see license records in the response, the connection works. 7. The MCP surfaces two tools: listing products and listing licenses with optional filters like status or customer ID.
What teammates see: by default, memories from Labs64 NetLicensing are scoped to the Space (PROJECT visibility) - you can mark any memory PRIVATE or share it ORG-wide.

Illustrative - representative of the model's voice and quality, not literal recordings.
@Labs64NetLicensing list all active licenses for our enterprise product, grouped by customer
Found 47 active licenses across 12 customers for product 'Enterprise Suite'. Top customers: Acme Corp (8 licenses, expires 2025-03-15), TechStart Inc (6 licenses, expires 2024-12-20), DevShop LLC (5 licenses, expires 2025-01-10). All licenses are currently valid with no expiration warnings in the next 30 days. Three customers have licenses expiring within 90 days and may need renewal outreach.
This example shows license inventory retrieval with filtering. Requires API key with read access to license data. The MCP returns structured license records; grouping and analysis happen in the AI layer. Useful for compliance audits and renewal planning, but pagination may be needed for accounts with hundreds of licenses.
@Labs64NetLicensing show me all products in our catalog with their licensing models and current active license counts
Retrieved 5 products from your NetLicensing catalog: (1) Enterprise Suite – subscription model, 47 active licenses; (2) Developer Toolkit – floating model, 23 active licenses; (3) Analytics Module – node-locked, 15 active; (4) API Gateway – pay-per-use, 8 active; (5) Mobile SDK – time-volume, 12 active. Enterprise Suite accounts for 45% of active licenses. Developer Toolkit shows highest growth with 6 new licenses this quarter.
Demonstrates product catalog overview paired with license statistics. This read-only query helps teams understand product adoption and licensing model distribution. The MCP fetches product metadata; cross-referencing with license counts requires multiple tool calls. No side effects, but API rate limits apply to bulk queries.
@Labs64NetLicensing draft a license renewal email for customers whose licenses expire in the next 60 days, including product names and expiration dates
Based on license data, 8 customers need renewal outreach: Acme Corp (Enterprise Suite, expires 2025-03-15), TechStart Inc (Enterprise Suite, expires 2024-12-20), DevShop LLC (Enterprise Suite + Developer Toolkit, expires 2025-01-10). Draft email template: 'Your [Product] license expires on [Date]. To ensure uninterrupted access, please renew by [Date minus 7 days]. Contact our team for renewal options or volume discounts.' Customers with multi-product licenses flagged for account manager review.
This synthesis example combines license querying with AI-generated communication. The MCP provides expiration data; the AI drafts contextual outreach. Useful for proactive license management, but verify expiration dates before sending—license states can change between query and send. Consider adding a manual review step for high-value accounts.
Use-case deep-dives
When NetLicensing MCP helps support triage license issues fast
A 6-person support team at a B2B SaaS company fields 20-30 license-related tickets daily—customers can't activate features, trials expired without notice, or seat counts don't match invoices. The NetLicensing MCP gives the team a shared workspace where any agent can query "list licenses for customer X" or "show all products with trial licenses expiring this week" without logging into the vendor portal. The two-tool scope (list licenses, list products) covers 80% of first-response needs: confirming what the customer owns, checking expiration dates, and spotting mismatches between purchased SKUs and active licenses. If your support volume is under 50 tickets a day and your product catalog has fewer than 20 SKUs, this MCP closes the loop faster than a Zendesk macro. Beyond that scale, you'll want custom dashboards or a dedicated license-ops role instead.
NetLicensing MCP works for small-team revenue recognition checks
A 3-person finance team at a 40-employee software shop runs monthly reconciliation between Stripe subscriptions and active licenses in NetLicensing. Before the MCP, this meant exporting CSVs from two systems and running vlookups in Excel. Now the finance lead pulls "list all licenses" in Switchy, cross-references product IDs against the Stripe export, and flags discrepancies in one 15-minute session. The API key auth is simple enough that the CFO can rotate it quarterly without IT help. The catch: NetLicensing's list endpoints don't return usage telemetry or seat consumption, so if you need to reconcile actual logins or feature usage, you'll still need a BI tool or custom script. For pure license-count reconciliation at sub-100-customer scale, the MCP saves 2 hours a month and eliminates the CSV shuffle.
When NetLicensing MCP speeds up demo prep for technical sales
A 2-person sales engineering team at a DevOps tooling startup preps 8-12 product demos weekly, each requiring a custom license configuration (trial duration, feature flags, seat limits). The NetLicensing MCP lets the SE query "list products" to confirm which SKUs support the prospect's requested features, then verify existing trial licenses before spinning up a new demo environment. The workflow shaves 5 minutes off each demo prep—enough to matter when you're juggling back-to-back calls. The limitation: the MCP only reads license state; it doesn't create or modify licenses, so the SE still opens the NetLicensing console to provision the actual trial. If your demo volume exceeds 20 per week or you need programmatic license creation, you'll want the full API or a Zapier integration. For read-heavy scoping at small scale, the MCP keeps the SE in one workspace instead of three browser tabs.
Frequently asked
What does the Labs64 NetLicensing MCP do in Switchy?
It connects your NetLicensing license management system to Switchy's AI workspace. Your team can query license records and product catalogs directly in chat — useful for support agents checking entitlements or developers verifying feature flags without opening the NetLicensing console. The MCP surfaces two core read operations: listing licenses with filters and retrieving your product catalog.
Do I need admin access to connect NetLicensing?
You need an API key with read permissions for licenses and products. NetLicensing uses API key authentication, not OAuth, so whoever connects it must generate a key in their NetLicensing account settings. If your org restricts API key creation to admins, you'll need one of them to set it up. The key stays scoped to whatever permissions NetLicensing assigned it.
Can the MCP create or revoke licenses?
No. This MCP only reads data — it lists existing licenses and products. You can't issue new licenses, modify entitlements, or revoke access through Switchy. For write operations, use the NetLicensing console or their full REST API directly. The read-only scope keeps accidental changes out of chat workflows.
Why use this instead of the NetLicensing dashboard?
Speed and context. If your team already works in Switchy, they can check a customer's license status mid-conversation without switching tabs or remembering dashboard URLs. The MCP also lets you combine license data with other tools — like pulling a Slack thread about a customer, checking their entitlements, then logging notes in your CRM, all in one workspace.
Who on the team should connect NetLicensing?
Whoever handles license inquiries most often — typically a support lead or product ops person. They'll need access to generate the API key. Once connected, any Switchy workspace member can query licenses through chat, but only the connector can update the API key if it rotates. Plan one connection per workspace; the MCP doesn't count against per-seat limits.
