Accessed through the Configuration drop-down menu, the Licensing page allows you to view and manage the license associated with your Starling Identity Analytics & Risk Intelligence account.

Licensing page

The Licensing page is displayed when the Licensing link is selected from the Configuration drop-down menu located in the navigation bar. The Licensing page is used for managing the data source instances that are configured for use by your account, as well as for providing information on your license.

The following information appears on this page:

License information pane

Located in the upper left corner of the page is a pane displaying the type and name of your license, the number of accounts covered by your license, and information on how those accounts are currently configured for the license. The following information is displayed regarding the accounts:

Instances

This displays the total number of instances. The number of data sources appears beneath the number of instances.

Data Collectors

This displays the number of data collectors currently configured for your account. The total number of accounts found within those data collectors appears beneath the number of data collectors.

For information on the table appearing at the bottom of the Licensing page, see Licensing table.

Active/Inactive

Clicking this link (which changes based on whether or not the license for the instance is active) will activate or deactivate licensing for the instance. An active license means the instance will be analyzed during data collection. An inactive license means the instance will not be analyzed during data collection until the license is reactivated.

Clicking this link will delete the instance. This is only available if the data source module associated with it has been uninstalled or redirected to use a different data source, and there must be no custom rules currently associated with the data source module.
