Named Entity Recognition 26.3
Named Entity Recognition User and Programming Guide

# Licenses

To run Named Entity Recognition, you must have a valid license, which you obtain from OpenText Support. You must also have a valid version key, which you can download from the Software Licenses and Downloads portal (SLD), in the License Server package or as a standalone download package. You must download a new `versionkey.dat` when you upgrade your components.

Standard grammar files are licensed by category and by language, so that you can have a license for any combination of category (for example, sentiment, place, or person) and language. The additional grammar packages also have additional licenses to allow you to use these grammars, such as the PII, PCI, PHI, and GOV grammar sets.

The Named Entity Recognition SDK requires an OEM license and version key, which you provide to the API. You create this value by concatenating the contents of your license key and version key with a semicolon (`;`). For example, if your licensekey is `ABC123` and the versionkey is `XYZ999`, the final license value is `ABC123;XYZ999`.

Named Entity Recognition Server uses a Knowledge Discovery license, which you access by using License Server. See Use Named Entity Recognition Server.

NiFi Ingest and CFS also require a Knowledge Discovery license (and License Server) to run Named Entity Recognition.
