After creating the unique key, it appears in the list of activation keys along with the number of times
it has been used. At this point, you may associate child channels and groups with the key so systems
registered with it will automatically be subscribed to them.
To change information about a key, such as the channels or groups, click its description in the key list,
make your modifications in the appropriate tabs, and click the Update Key button. To remove a key
entirely, click the delete key link in the top-right corner of the edit page.
If you do not want a key to be used to activate a system, you can disable it by unselecting the corre-
sponding checkbox under the Enabled column in the key list. The key can be re-enabled by selecting
the checkbox. After making these changes, click the Update Keys button on the bottom right-hand
corner of the page.
