From an installation guide:
Um die Benutzung des Tools zu ermöglichen, ist es nötig den vorhandenen Lizenzschlüssel * einzubinden *. Dies geschieht über eine toolinterne Programmfunktion.
In the screenshot belonging to this installation step, "use [local/server] licence" is used, but I'm looking for a more specific verb ("integrate" and "link" don't seem to fit). Any ideas?

Note from asker:
| Thanks you for your suggestions! The license data indeed has to be loaded from a file, so I think I will go for "install". |

: I agree with Jeremy, especially since this seems to indicate external verification and download of license data or including from a local file.

: This is another solution. If the tool is an add-on (e.g. *.dot module) go for enter, if the SW is an installed program go for install.

: The source word suggests the license key isn't something you actually enter, but rather include as a lice key file or external verification.

Vielleicht eine weitere Lösung?
In order to activate the tool, it is required to connect/upload the license key.

Enter/Use/Include cover all bases, so why get overly nitpicky?
import, add, activate, configure, type in, install, enter, load, use, ...
Nur incorporate kommt kaum vor ;-)
