Introduction
An own license key is necessary, especially if you want to access features like Onesync, colored server names, and other exclusive benefits available through FiveM Patreon.

Preparation

After you are logged in, click on the New server button on the left navigation bar, which will take you to the key creation page.
Generate license key
Once you have provided all of the necessary information, you should be able to generate a key. Your page should look similar to below. Now, press the Generate button and a key will be created.
Return back to the home page, and you will be able to see your newly registered license key.
Add license key
Finally, you must head over to the Settings section on your game server's webinterface, and head over to the Custom license key field. In this field, paste the code that was generated.
For txAdmin:
If you are using txAdmin version of the game server, you must instead define the key under the sv_licensekey parameter. You can access your server.cfg file either via your txAdmin interface panel, the Configs section on your game server's webinterface or directly through FTP access.
