Hi @sbm_1772,
Thanks for reaching out. The Rendition API is a production Adobe Developer service that creates PDF/JPEG/PNG output from .indd via REST, documented with request/response samples and auth requirements. Please check the following doc: https://adobe.ly/45BHftt separate from running your own InDesign Server engine.
If you plan to host InDesign Server yourself, Adobe offers four license types: Premium (public/external use), Limited (internal-only), Development (dev/test), and Trial; pricing and selection guidance are provided in Adobe's buying guide. Check the following doc: https://adobe.ly/4mhynQZ
Choice of Premium vs. Limited depends on whether your solution is exposed to external users (Premium) or only employees/internal users (Limited).
Development is for non‑production environments. If you also run InDesign Server anywhere in your stack, ensure your environment meets Adobe's requirements (system requirements and deployment FAQs). Check this doc: https://adobe.ly/3V9c8k8
If the .NET API will serve only your company's internal users. A 'Limited' license is the standard choice when hosting InDesign Server; if any external users/clients will access it (SaaS/portal), Premium is required; use Development for test/stage.
If you exclusively use Adobe's hosted Rendition API (no self‑hosted InDesign Server), you can proceed with the Developer Console integration and production usage under your enterprise agreement; consult Adobe sales if you need Server licensing. Please fill out this form to consult with our team:https://adobe.ly/4mgYkQA.
Thanks, ^BS
