License Activation Service
Important:
We are transitioning to an industry-standard, cloud-based licensing architecture for the Citrix platform. This move automates entitlement and activation, bringing key customer benefits:
- No license file management: Eliminates the need to download, allocate, or manage license files, simplifying your administrative tasks.
- Automated entitlement updates: Entitlements are updated automatically in the background upon contract renewal ensuring uninterrupted service.
- Increased resiliency: The License Server is no longer a single point of failure for user sessions, enhancing the stability of your environment.
We encourage you to use the time leading up to the switch to plan and execute your transition to adopt the new licensing model by April 15, 2026, and we are committed to supporting you every step of the way. For more information, see Citrix Modern Licensing Announcement.
The License Activation Service (LAS) is a new cloud-based licensing solution that provides an alternative to the traditional Citrix legacy licensing. LAS introduces new modules for activation, ensuring a seamless and modern approach to license management.
The LAS simplifies the Citrix Licensing experience. There are no longer license access codes or files to generate, download, or install on the license server. You only need to upgrade your license server and register with Citrix Cloud. Once the compatible products are pointed to the license server, they can be activated automatically.
After activation, the License Server regularly communicates with the License Activation Service to keep its activation up to date. The LAS is built with cloud technology, which improves performance and ensures that there is no downtime. If, for any reason, the License Server or LAS is unreachable, the system enters license caching mode, which is designed to protect the system from being unlicensed and avoid an outage. For more information, see License caching mode.
For more details on LAS, see the Licensing documentation License Activation Service.
