JetBrains Console Help

Authorize a team member to activate on-premises team tool licenses

Some of the JetBrains on-premises team tools require activation through JetBrains Console. The person performing the activation must have org or team admin permissions.

If you purchased the license yourself as an individual or on behalf of an organization, you already have the required permissions. However, to delegate the activation to someone else, you need to grant them the required permissions. Depending on the level of access you’re prepared to share, you have two options to do so.

Option 1: Grant org admin permissions

To invite the person activating your team tool as an org admin to your organization’s profile, follow these instructions.

Option 2: Grant team administrator permissions

As a more granular solution, you can use the team admin role. A team admin can only manage the licenses that belong to a specific team within your company’s profile.

  1. Find the team that contains your team tool license. If you’re not sure which team that is, use the instructions below to locate it.

  2. Follow the instructions to invite a new team admin.

Finding the team that contains a specific license

  1. Log in to JetBrains Console.

  2. In the sidebar under Licensing select Products and services.

That’s the team that contains your license. To give someone else access to this license, invite them to this team as an admin.
