Release Management offers additional features beyond the basic functionalities of the free plan. A Standard license must be purchased and assigned to a connected app to enable the features of the Standard plan for that particular connected app.

Licenses and current apps

You can manage licenses on the Release Management overview page, from the Licences widget above the list of connected apps. For each license, you will see the following numbers:

  • Current apps: the number of apps you assigned the license to for the billing period.

  • Apps in plan: the total number of licenses available in your plan.

Assigning licenses to connected apps

You can start with a Basic license after connecting an app, and upgrade anytime to get access to the additional benefits of the Standard license. A license is non-transferable after it has been assigned to a connected app, it remains bound to that app for the duration of the license term (the billing cycle).

Changing the license

Assigning a Standard license to a connected app will take effect instantly. Changing a Standard license to Basic will take effect at the end of the billing period.

To assign licenses to connected apps:

  1. Open Release Management.

  2. Find the Licenses widget above the Connected apps list and click Manage.

  3. Select the license for each connected app. The Change column will display if the assigned license of an app will change, and when the change takes effect.

  4. On the summary, review the total number of assigned licenses for the current and the next period.

  5. Click Confirm changes.

Exceeding your plan limit

If the number of assigned licenses exceeds the plan limit, a notification will appear. You can go back to change assigned licenses or change your plan to proceed with the selected configuration.

To solve the issue:

  1. Click the link in the notification to change your plan. It will open the Change plan for Release Management add-on page in a new browser tab.

  2. Increase or decrease the number of Apps in plan (the licenses you can assign to connected apps).

    If the number of Current apps exceeds the new Apps in plan limit, you will get a notification, but you can continue to checkout. Make sure to manage licenses before the changes take effect to keep using all features for new releases.

    Caution

    When Current apps exceed the number of Apps in plan for Standard licenses, you will not have access to additional benefits of the Standard license for any connected apps in your Workspace.
