Q100585: How to activate your individual login-based license

Follow

SUMMARY

Foundry login-based licensing gives you the flexibility to easily use your license on different machines when or if you need to.

Before you can activate the license on your machine, you will need to have a valid entitlement in your account on the Foundry website. You can view your current login licenses and entitlements via the Login License page on the Foundry website.

Note: These steps are for individual licenses only. If you are using a teams license, the steps to activate a teams license can be found here: Q100660: How to activate your teams login-based license
