<pre>
  LicenseResponse License = new LicenseResponse();

using (WebClient client = new WebClient())
            {
                var response = client.UploadValues(txtLicenseServer.Text, new NameValueCollection()
                {

string result = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(response);
                License = FromJson<LicenseResponse>(result);
            }
	    
	    if (License != null)
            {
                lblResponse.Text = $"Result: {License.result} | Message: {License.message} | Key: {License.key}";

txtFirstName.Text = License.first_name;
                txtLastName.Text = License.last_name;

txtProductref.Text = License.product_ref;

listActivations.Items.Clear();

foreach (RegDomains domain in License.registered_domains)
                {
                    listActivations.Items.Add(new ListViewItem(new string[] {
                        domain.id,
                        domain.registered_domain,
                        domain.item_reference,
                    }));

txtItem.Text = domain.item_reference;

}

listActivations.AutoResizeColumns(ColumnHeaderAutoResizeStyle.ColumnContent);
                listActivations.AutoResizeColumns(ColumnHeaderAutoResizeStyle.HeaderSize);
                listActivations.Refresh();
            }
