Overview
The License Monitor is a tool in the CSI Customer Center, providing a live snapshot of your account's CSI License Usage. The gauges at the top of the page show a summary of the licenses in use versus the total number of licenses. The tables below provide details for which licenses are in use and by which user. The License Monitor can be found in the CSI Customer Center under Cloud Licensing Tools > License Monitor.
Required Permissions
To view the License Monitor in the CSI Customer Center, a user must be assigned a role with the “Cloud License Monitor” permission selected. This permission is enabled by default on all template roles.
Terminating User Sessions
Remote termination of a Cloud Sign-in license on a user’s machine is available in the License Monitor. Once terminated, the software will close on the user’s machine. Checked-out licenses and non-Cloud Sign-in licenses cannot be remotely terminated.
The option to terminate a session is available as follows:
Any Cloud Sign-in license user can terminate their own session (with “Cloud License Monitor” permission to view the License Monitor).
A Customer Account Administrator can terminate any session in their customer account.
A user with the User Role permission of “Terminate Sessions” can terminate any session in their customer account. A user can be assigned this role by their Customer Account Administrator in the CSI Customer Center in the User Management Dashboard.
Application Programming Interface (API)
Users can access the data shown in the Cloud License Monitor via API, allowing them to programmatically query the license server from a third-party application. The data will be returned in JSON format.
If you are interested in setting up an API endpoint to access your License Monitor data via API, please email support@csiamerica.com.
