Customer portal: Wrong response from validate license key

[anderseklof]

Description

When validating a license key that has status revoked I get a 404.

Current Behavior

When validating a revoked license key I get this response:

HTTP Status Code: 404
Response body: {"error":"ResourceNotFound","detail":"License key is no longer active."}

Expected Behavior

Should return status 200 with the license key object in body, containing key status with value revoked.

Hi @anderseklof,

https://docs.polar.sh/api-reference/license-keys/get is the API you can use to get the expected expected behavior. The /validate endpoint acts as a counter for how many times this license key has been validated and if the key is no more active (i.e. revoked or canceled), the endpoint would indeed return a 404. This status code is returned because the License Key is no longer active, and hence there's nothing found to be validated.
