For more information about the license types see Supplemental Terms.

Licensing

According to the purchased packages, you have a specific quota of licenses for each license type.

Assigning one of the Insights Hub Business Intelligence user roles above entitles for acquisition of a corresponding license. Users will automatically acquire a license by opening Insights Hub Business Intelligence for the first time.

Sharing a license among multiple users is not permitted and therefore, licenses cannot be reassigned frequently. Hence, neither tenant administrators nor Insights Hub Business Intelligence Administrators are allowed to reassign licenses. Insights Hub Business Intelligence Administrators can review the list of users and their current license assignment in the 'Users' menu of Insights Hub Business Intelligence.

Revoking access to Insights Hub Business Intelligence via the Settings application does not immediately withdraw the license from the user. As a consequence, the user cannot log in, but remains on the server and still consumes a license. When the access has been revoked and the license has not been used for more than four weeks, it will automatically be removed from the user and will become available again.
