Your license does two jobs: it lets your installation run, and it decides which features and limits apply. On the License page, you install your license and see exactly what it covers.

Find this page at System Configuration > License.

Review your license

When a license is active, the summary row shows the details that matter most:

Field Description
License Type The kind of license, such as Internal, Commercial, Community Edition, or 1-Click VM.
Client ID The identifier for your organization.
Max User Count How many users you can register on the platform.
Max Workspace Count How many workspaces the platform can hold.
Expiry Date When the license expires.

Upload a new license

You can install your license two ways:

  • Online License — The platform fetches and refreshes your license automatically from the Citrix License Server. Use this when the platform can reach the License Server.
  • File License — You upload a license file yourself. Use this for air-gapped or offline installations that can’t reach the License Server.

To install or replace a license:

  1. Go to System Configuration > License.
  2. Select Upload New License.
  3. Read and accept the Terms & Conditions.
  4. Choose how to install it:
    • For an online license, select Online License. The platform fetches and checks it from the License Server.
    • For a file license, select File License and choose your license file.
  5. Confirm the upload.

The summary row updates to show your new license.

Note:

If you have both an online and a file license, the online one takes precedence.

Turn features on or off

The License page also lists the features your license covers. Each one shows its current status, which you can change:

  • Enabled — Everyone can use the feature.
  • Disabled — The feature is turned off.
  • Enabled for Selected Users — Only the users or groups you pick can use it.
  • Enabled for Selected OS — Only the operating systems you pick can use it, where that applies.

Important:

You can only manage features your license covers. Within a covered feature, you can change its status and widen the set of users or groups it applies to.

Here are the features you can manage from this page:
