About license usage for GitHub Enterprise

You can view license usage for GitHub Enterprise Server on GitHub.

If you use both GitHub Enterprise Cloud and GitHub Enterprise Server and sync license usage between the products, you can view license usage for both on GitHub Enterprise Cloud. For more information about license sync, see "Syncing license usage between GitHub Enterprise Server and GitHub Enterprise Cloud."

For more information about viewing license usage on GitHub Enterprise Cloud and identifying when the last license sync occurred, see "Viewing license usage for GitHub Enterprise" in the GitHub Enterprise Cloud documentation.

You can also use the REST API to return consumed licenses data and the status of the license sync job. See "REST API endpoints for enterprise licenses."

To learn more about the license data associated with your enterprise account and how the number of consumed user licenses are calculated, see "Troubleshooting license usage for GitHub Enterprise."
