Hello,
Version: 2.6.1.17472
Enterprise License
. I have Windows servers that don't seem to have their licenses activated.
Is there a way to list this using the WAPT console?
In WMI and hardware inventory, I can't find any objects that seem to match
{{ host_info.windows_product_infos.key_match }} --> always true even if it's not activated.

Any ideas if this is possible?

Hello Skoiser and Happy New Year 2026!

You can retrieve it via auditing with something like this (note: I haven't covered possible error cases):

Code: Select all

import json

def audit():
    data = run_powershell('Get-CimInstance SoftwareLicensingProduct -Filter "partialproductkey is not null" | ? name -like windows* | select Description, LicenseStatus | ConvertTo-Json')
    json_data = json.loads(data)
    if int(json_data['LicenseStatus'])==1:
        return 'OK'
    else:
        return 'WARNING'
Sincerely,

Denis
