Before you can use your cloud license, the Administrator or Contract Manager of your Graphisoft ID Company must assign it to your Graphisoft ID account. This method of licence assignment is referred to as "named" licensing.
Note: An Archicad cloud license becomes a floating license when assigned to a group. For further details on floating licensing, please refer to this article: How to assign cloud license to a Group
To use a cloud licence as named, the Administrator or Contract Manager can assign it to a Graphisoft ID account by following these steps:
- Select the license
- Click on ‘Change assignee’
- Select a member from your company and press ‘Change’
- You can see the selected license is now assigned to the company member you selected earlier
The Administrator or Contract Manager can set the assignee to be ‘Unassigned’ or revoke licenses with the Revoke license option using the ‘View by members’ filter.
Use ‘Assign new’ when you wish to associate a new type of license to a Graphisoft ID.
Once the cloud license was assigned to your Graphisoft ID account, you can activate it for Archicad by simply signing in with your Graphisoft ID. Make sure you enter your credentials correctly and have a stable internet connection.
