I can see that we can use * when selecting users to assign a license to.
So that's ok for the initial assignment of users defined. When the LDAP
nightly sync tasks adds users, then I would have to manually go in and
search for * users and assign a license then. I'm trying to remove the
manual step. This makes more sense when considered with floating
licenses. If I've bought 100 floating licenses then when LDAP nightly
sync creates a new user I'd like a floating license to be assigned
automatically at that stage. Then the only error they can get is if
there isn't a license available on the license server rather than that
they haven't been assigned one.

It sounds like this isn't being considered so I think I'll open an
enhancement.

Jeremy

Whenever a user is archived, their license is released.

It is not possible to have licenses assigned to users automatically
right now.

For your problem, I believe there is a way to do bulk licenses
assignment from web UI. Perhaps the documentation has some instructions
on how to do that.

page on the web ui.

When the nightly sync process archives users, does it release the license?

Can I have it assign a contributor license automatically to new users
the nightly process adds?

Mayny thanks,
