License Reservation
License Reservation is a feature where you can dedicate one or more user licenses to a specific user**.** You can think of it as being a permanent member of a specific user feature.
The example diagram shows that we have:
- Two Playout licenses are available.
- Four users share the same Policy and User Group.
Depending on the example, the following conditions apply:
- USER A can always have access to the Playout module.
- Since one Playout license is reserved for USER A, only one of the other users (USER B, C, D) will be allowed to use the Playout module at a time no matter the USER A is using the feature or not.
warning
Reserving a license to a user alone doesn't mean that the user will have access to the feature automatically. Accessing a feature still needs to be configured through the Policies. Briefly, to access a specific user feature, your policy must allow you accordingly.
To reserve a license:
- Select a username from the All Users group.
- Go to the Reserved Licenses section inside the Details Panel.
- Click on the + (plus) icon
- Select a license and click OK
info
You can also bulk-select licenses by clicking and holding the control button.
License reservation is successful.
