Manage Floating Commercial License Seats

A floating commercial license comes with a limited number of seats. Each seat entitles you to run a Remain API Studio instance. If you run out of seats then an already activated license seat can be used on some other machine by deactivating it then activating it on that other machine!

First, go to the Settings/License Management editor.

Deactivate your Seat

To deactivate your active seat click the link: Free this license seat by deactivating it. The license status on the top right of this editor will show Deactivated upon successful action.

To reactivate this same instance, or activate another Remain API Studio instance using this freed-up seat, click the Activate button.

Manage All Seats

If your license is a floating one, you can view all seats on all machines/computers using this license. This way, you can manage them by de/activating the seats you want. To do so, click the Manage license seats link beside the seats count label.
