Issue description
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 license 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
Solution
To use a cloud license as a named license, the Administrator or Contract Manager can assign it to a Graphisoft ID account by following these steps:
- Log in to the Graphisoft License Management Portal.
- 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 Unassigned or revoke licenses using the Revoke license option in the View by members filter.
- Use Assign new when you want to associate a new license type with a Graphisoft ID.
Once the cloud license is assigned to your Graphisoft ID account, you can activate it in Archicad by simply signing in with your Graphisoft ID in the software. Make sure you enter your credentials correctly and have a stable internet connection.
