I have a license key and activation key, but every time I click on "Get Maker Edition" it takes me to my account page.

If I click on download Ignition, it asks for my work contact info.

What do I do?

Thanks

Hm. Now the download link seems to let me bypass the work info and download it. Maybe I just needed to wait a bit for the activation/license key to get into the system...

You just download any version of Ignition, you can skip the form at the very bottom of it which downloads it without entering your details. Then just install it and during the "commissioning" of it, select maker edition as. You apply the licence via the gateway web portal ([http://localhost:8088](http://localhost:8088)) under Config \> licensing

Hello Nick,

Is your previous direction suitable for a Linux installation ??  
Meaning the normal Linux installation package method, and then use the license generated for maker edition ?

Select "Maker" during gateway commissioning.
