One 1C server cluster requires one server license and at least one user license. You can rent licenses from us or activate your own. Temporary free licenses and 1C:Server MINI are not supported.

8. Click Create. Licenses will be activated automatically.
9. Click Continue.

Activate own licenses

If you are reactivating a license, the data must completely match what you entered during the first activation. If you are activating a license for the first time, save the data you enter—for example, take a screenshot.

To activate, you can enter the license registration data or use an activation command.

Enter registration data

1. In the 1C Licenses block, open the Licenses tab.

2. Select Own licenses.

3. Click Activate license.

4. Select the activation method — Registration data.

7. In the Owner data block:

   7.1. Enter the full name of the license owner — for example, the company employee responsible for 1C.

   7.2. Enter the license owner's email. This email can be used to retrieve data about the license owner and PIN code status, as well as to receive backup PIN codes.

8. In the Address block, specify the mailing address for paper correspondence.

9. In the License set block:

   9.1. Enter the set number (license registration number).

   9.2. Enter the PIN code. If you have already activated this license before, use the next PIN code from the set.

   9.3. If you are using the next PIN code from the set, enter the previous PIN code — the one you used during the previous activation. If you are activating the license for the first time, leave the field empty.

10. If you are activating the license for the first time, save the data you entered — for example, take a screenshot.

Where:
