# Activate Now

`POST /api/admin/updates/activation/activate`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://app.thinqos.com` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://app.thinqos.com/api/admin/updates/activation/activate`
- Auth: none declared

Online activation now. Failures land in ``last_error`` and
``service_state`` on the returned object rather than as an HTTP error, so
the page shows the same state it would show on its next load.

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- ActivationView: Installation activation (TOS-3634 Release 2), SHADOW mode. ``enforced`` is always false in this release: the state is shown, and nothing on the install is restricted by it.
