Hello, my module is showing as a “Trial” in the Modules section of the Gateway configuration, which is causing a green Licensing banner (licensing incomplete) to appear for customers when they are using the Gateway.

I would like to just disable that licensing mechanism or otherwise tell Ignition “I’m all good”. Can I inform it somehow that I am a “Free” module? I couldn’t find an article on this, please point me if I just overlooked it.

Add the following to your Gateway module hook class:

```auto
public boolean isFreeModule() {
        return true;
}

```
