Before you can use your floating cloud license, you must assign it to a group that belongs to the company. The license will then be available for the group members (selected Graphisoft ID accounts) to reserve and activate the associated products. The license can be transferred to anyone in the same group. This licensing method is referred to as "floating".
Note: An Archicad cloud license becomes a named license when assigned to a Graphisoft ID account. For further details on named licensing, please refer to this article: How to assign a cloud license to a Graphisoft ID account
To use a cloud licence as floating, the Administrator or Contract Manager can assign it to a Group by following these steps:
- Click on the 'Cloud licenses' tab under 'Licenses' and select "View by groups"
- Click on ‘Assign new’, select the number of licenses to assign and click on "Assign"
- You can see that the license is now assigned to the group you selected
You can set the license to be 'Unassigned' or change the assignee with the 'Change assignee' option:
Use the ‘Assign new’ option to give additional or new types of licenses to the group.
It is also possible to assign a license to a group by opening the group details and selecting the ‘Assign licenses’ option.
Select the product and the number of licenses you wish to assign.
