twinsphere Licensing

Licensing controls which twinsphere capabilities your organization and its members can use. You can review your organization's licensing and assign per-user capabilities to members - in the Manage UI or via the Management API. These management operations require the organization-owner role; individual members can always see their own licenses via the /me endpoint.

There are two kinds of licenses.

Organization licenses

Organization licenses are entitlements granted to your whole organization as part of your subscription (for example studio-access). Every member benefits from them and there is nothing to assign. They are provisioned for you by twinsphere and shown in your organization's licensing overview.

User-bound licenses (seats)

User-bound licenses are per-user capabilities (for example studio-creator) that come as a limited pool of seats. Your subscription defines the seat quota for each user-bound license; as an organization owner you decide which members occupy those seats.

For each user-bound license the licensing overview shows:

  • quota — the total number of seats available
  • assigned — how many seats are currently in use
  • remaining — how many seats are still free
  • the members currently holding a seat

Assigning and releasing seats

As an organization owner you can:

  • assign a seat to a member, as long as a seat is still free and the member does not already hold one
  • release a seat, returning it to the pool for someone else
