+
+# Activate GitLab EE with a license file or key
+
+If you receive a license file from GitLab (for example, for a trial), you can
+upload it to your instance or add it during installation. The license file is
+a base64-encoded ASCII text file with a `.gitlab-license` extension.
+
+The first time you sign in to your GitLab instance, a note with a
+link to the **Add license** page should be displayed.
+
+Otherwise, to add your license:
+
+1. Sign in to GitLab as an administrator.
+1. On the left sidebar, expand the top-most chevron (**{chevron-down}**).
+1. Select **Admin Area**.
+1. Select **Settings > General**.
+1. In the **Add License** area, add a license by either uploading the file or entering the key.
+1. Select the **Terms of Service** checkbox.
+1. Select **Add license**.
+
+NOTE:
+In GitLab 14.7.x to 14.9.x, you can add the license file with the UI.
+In GitLab 14.1.x to 14.7, if you have already activated your subscription with an activation code, you cannot access **Add License** from the Admin Area. You must access **Add License** directly from the URL, `<YourGitLabURL>/admin/license/new`.
+
+## Activate subscription during installation
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/114572) in GitLab 16.0.
+
+To activate your subscription during installation, set the `GITLAB_ACTIVATION_CODE` environment variable with the activation code:
+
+```shell
+export GITLAB_ACTIVATION_CODE=your_activation_code
+```
+
+## Add license file during installation
+
+If you have a license, you can also import it when you install GitLab.
+
+- For self-compiled installations:
+ - Place the `Gitlab.gitlab-license` file in the `config/` directory.
+ - To specify a custom location and filename for the license, set the
+ `GITLAB_LICENSE_FILE` environment variable with the path to the file:
+
+ ```shell
+ export GITLAB_LICENSE_FILE="/path/to/license/file"
+ ```
+
+- For Linux package installations:
+ - Place the `Gitlab.gitlab-license` file in the `/etc/gitlab/` directory.
+ - To specify a custom location and filename for the license, add this entry to `gitlab.rb`:
+
+ ```ruby
+ gitlab_rails['initial_license_file'] = "/path/to/license/file"
+ ```
+
+WARNING:
+These methods only add a license at the time of installation. To renew or upgrade
+a license, add the license in the **Admin Area** in the web user interface.
+
+## Submit license usage data
+
+If you use a license file or key to activate your instance in an offline environment, you must submit your license
+usage data monthly.
+To submit the data, [export your license usage](../subscriptions/self_managed/index.md#export-your-license-usage)
+and send it by email to the renewals service, `renewals-service@customers.gitlab.com`.
+
+If you don't submit your data each month after your subscription start date, an email is sent to the address
+associated with your subscription and a banner displays to remind you to submit your data. The banner displays
+in the **Admin Area** on the **Dashboard** and on the **Subscription** pages. You can only dismiss it until the
+following month after you submit your license usage data.
+
+## What happens when your license expires
+
+Fifteen days before the license expires, a notification banner with the upcoming expiration
+date displays to GitLab administrators.
+
+When your license expires, GitLab locks features, like Git pushes
+and issue creation. Your instance becomes read-only and
+an expiration message displays to all administrators. You have a 14-day grace period
+before this occurs.
+
+To resume functionality, [renew your subscription](../subscriptions/self_managed/index.md#renew-subscription-manually).
+
+If the license has been expired for more than 30 days, you must purchase a [new subscription](../subscriptions/self_managed/index.md) to resume functionality.
+
+To go back to Free features, [delete all expired licenses](#remove-a-license).
+
+## Remove a license
+
+To remove a license from a self-managed instance:
+
+1. On the left sidebar, expand the top-most chevron (**{chevron-down}**).
+1. Select **Admin Area**.
+1. Select **Subscription**.
+1. Select **Remove license**.
+
+Repeat these steps to remove all licenses, including those applied in the past.
+
+## View license details and history
+
+To view your license details:
+
+1. On the left sidebar, expand the top-most chevron (**{chevron-down}**).
+1. Select **Admin Area**.
+1. Select **Subscription**.
+
+You can add and view more than one license, but only the latest license in
+the current date range is the active license.
+
+When you add a future-dated license, it doesn't take effect until its applicable date.
+You can view all active subscriptions in the **Subscription history** table.
+
+You can also [export](../subscriptions/self_managed/index.md) your license usage information to a CSV file.
+
+NOTE:
+In GitLab 13.6 and earlier, a banner about an expiring license may continue to display
+when you add a new license. This happens when the start date of the new license
+is in the future and the expiring one is still active.
+The banner disappears after the new license becomes active.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### No Subscription area in the Admin Area
+
+You cannot add your license because there is no **Subscription** area.
+This issue might occur if:
+
+- You're running GitLab Community Edition. Before you add your license, you
+ must [upgrade to Enterprise Edition](../update/index.md#community-to-enterprise-edition).
+- You're using GitLab.com. You cannot add a self-managed license to GitLab.com.
+ To use paid features on GitLab.com, [purchase a separate subscription](../subscriptions/gitlab_com/index.md).
+
+### Users exceed license limit upon renewal
+
+GitLab displays a message prompting you to purchase
+additional users. This issue occurs if you add a license that does not have enough
+users to cover the number of users in your instance.
+
+To fix this issue, purchase additional seats to cover those users.
+For more information, read the [licensing FAQ](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/licensing-faq/).
+
+In GitLab 14.2 and later, for instances that use a license file, the following
+rules apply:
+
+- If the users over license are less than or equal to 10% of the users in the license
+ file, the license is applied and you pay the overage in the next renewal.
+- If the users over license are more than 10% of the users in the license file,
+ you cannot apply the license without purchasing more users.
+
+For example, if you purchase a license for 100 users, you can have 110 users when you add
+your license. However, if you have 111 users, you must purchase more users before you can add
+the license.
+
+### `Start GitLab Ultimate trial` still displays after adding license
+
+To fix this issue, restart [Puma or your entire GitLab instance](../administration/restart_gitlab.md).
+
+### License commands in the rails console
+
+The following commands can be run in the [rails console](../administration/operations/rails_console.md#starting-a-rails-console-session).
+
+WARNING:
+Any command that changes data directly could be damaging if not run correctly, or under the right conditions.
+We highly recommend running them in a test environment with a backup of the instance ready to be restored, just in case.
+
+#### See current license information
+
+```ruby
+# License information (name, company, email address)
+License.current.licensee
+
+# Plan:
+License.current.plan
+
+# Uploaded:
+License.current.created_at
+
+# Started:
+License.current.starts_at
+
+# Expires at:
+License.current.expires_at
+
+# Is this a trial license?
+License.current.trial?
+
+# License ID for lookup on CustomersDot
+License.current.license_id
+
+# License data in Base64-encoded ASCII format
+License.current.data
+
+# Confirm the current billable seat count excluding guest users. This is useful for customers who use an Ultimate subscription tier where Guest seats are not counted.
+User.active.without_bots.excluding_guests.count
+
+```
+
+#### Interaction with licenses that start in the future
+
+```ruby
+# Future license data follows the same format as current license data it just uses a different modifier for the License prefix
+License.future_dated
+```
+
+#### Check if a project feature is available on the instance
+
+Features listed in [`features.rb`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/ee/app/models/gitlab_subscriptions/features.rb).
+
+```ruby
+License.current.feature_available?(:jira_dev_panel_integration)
+```
+
+#### Check if a project feature is available in a project
+
+Features listed in [`features.rb`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/ee/app/models/gitlab_subscriptions/features.rb).
+
+```ruby
+p = Project.find_by_full_path('<group>/<project>')
+p.feature_available?(:jira_dev_panel_integration)
+```
+
+#### Add a license through the console
+
+```ruby
+key = "<key>"
+license = License.new(data: key)
+license.save
+License.current # check to make sure it applied
+```
+
+This is needed for example in a known edge-case with
+[expired license and multiple LDAP servers](../administration/auth/ldap/ldap-troubleshooting.md#expired-license-causes-errors-with-multiple-ldap-servers).
+
+#### Remove licenses
+
+To clean up the [License History table](../administration/license_file.md#view-license-details-and-history):
+
+```ruby
+TYPE = :trial?
+# or :expired?
+
+License.select(&TYPE).each(&:destroy!)
+
+# or even License.all.each(&:destroy!)
+```

+# Package Registry Rate Limits **(FREE SELF)**
+
+With the [GitLab Package Registry](../../user/packages/package_registry/index.md),
+you can use GitLab as a private or public registry for a variety of common package managers. You can
+publish and share packages, which others can consume as a dependency in downstream projects through
+the [Packages API](../../api/packages.md).
+
+If downstream projects frequently download such dependencies, many requests are made through the
+Packages API. You may therefore reach enforced [user and IP rate limits](../../user/admin_area/settings/user_and_ip_rate_limits.md).
+To address this issue, you can define specific rate limits for the Packages API:
+
+- [Unauthenticated requests (per IP)](#enable-unauthenticated-request-rate-limit-for-packages-api).
+- [Authenticated API requests (per user)](#enable-authenticated-api-request-rate-limit-for-packages-api).
+
+These limits are disabled by default.
+
+When enabled, they supersede the general user and IP rate limits for requests to
+the Packages API. You can therefore keep the general user and IP rate limits, and
+increase the rate limits for the Packages API. Besides this precedence, there is
+no difference in functionality compared to the general user and IP rate limits.
+
+## Enable unauthenticated request rate limit for packages API
+
+To enable the unauthenticated request rate limit:
+
+1. On the left sidebar, expand the top-most chevron (**{chevron-down}**).
+1. Select **Admin Area**.
+1. Select **Settings > Network**.
+1. Expand **Package registry rate limits**.
+1. Select **Enable unauthenticated request rate limit**.
+
+ - Optional. Update the **Maximum unauthenticated requests per rate limit period per IP** value.
+ Defaults to `800`.
+ - Optional. Update the **Unauthenticated rate limit period in seconds** value.
+ Defaults to `15`.
+
+## Enable authenticated API request rate limit for packages API
+
+To enable the authenticated API request rate limit:
+
+1. On the left sidebar, expand the top-most chevron (**{chevron-down}**).
+1. Select **Admin Area**.
+1. Select **Settings > Network**
+1. Expand **Package registry rate limits**.
+1. Select **Enable authenticated API request rate limit**.
+
+ - Optional. Update the **Maximum authenticated API requests per rate limit period per user** value.
+ Defaults to `1000`.
+ - Optional. Update the **Authenticated API rate limit period in seconds** value.
+ Defaults to `15`.

+# Project integration management **(FREE)**
+
+Project integrations can be configured and enabled by project administrators. As a GitLab instance
+administrator, you can set default configuration parameters for a given integration that all projects
+can inherit and use, enabling the integration for all projects that are not already using custom
+settings.
+
+You can update these default settings at any time, changing the settings used for all projects that
+are set to use instance-level or group-level defaults. Updating the default settings also enables the integration
+for all projects that didn't have it already enabled.
+
+Only the complete settings for an integration can be inherited. Per-field inheritance is [planned](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/2137).
+
+## Manage instance-level default settings for a project integration **(FREE SELF)**
+
+> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/2137) in GitLab 13.3 for project-level integrations.
+> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/2543) in GitLab 13.6 for group-level integrations.
+
+1. On the left sidebar, expand the top-most chevron (**{chevron-down}**).
+1. Select **Admin Area**.
+1. Select **Settings > Integrations**.
+1. Select an integration.
+1. Enter configuration details and select **Save changes**.
+
+WARNING:
+This may affect all or most of the groups and projects on your GitLab instance. Review the details
+below.
+
+If this is the first time you are setting up instance-level settings for an integration:
+
+- The integration is enabled for all groups and projects that don't already have this integration configured,
+ if you have the **Enable integration** toggle turned on in the instance-level settings.
+- Groups and projects that already have the integration configured are not affected, but can choose to use the
+ inherited settings at any time.
+
+When you make further changes to the instance defaults:
+
+- They are immediately applied to all groups and projects that have the integration set to use default settings.
+- They are immediately applied to newer groups and projects, created after you last saved defaults for the
+ integration. If your instance-level default setting has the **Enable integration** toggle turned
+ on, the integration is automatically enabled for all such groups and projects.
+- Groups and projects with custom settings selected for the integration are not immediately affected and may
+ choose to use the latest defaults at any time.
+
+Only the complete settings for an integration can be inherited. Per-field inheritance
+is [planned](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/2137). This would allow
+administrators to update settings inherited by groups and projects without enabling the
+integration on all non-configured groups and projects by default.
+
+### Remove an instance-level default setting
+
+1. On the left sidebar, expand the top-most chevron (**{chevron-down}**).
+1. Select **Admin Area**.
+1. Select **Settings > Integrations**.
+1. Select an integration.
+1. Select **Reset** and confirm.
+
+Resetting an instance-level default setting removes the integration from all projects that have the integration set to use default settings.
+
+### View projects that override the default settings
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/218252) in GitLab 14.2.
+
+You can view which projects in your instance use custom settings that [override the instance-level default settings](#use-custom-settings-for-a-group-or-project-integration)
+for an integration.
+
+1. On the left sidebar, expand the top-most chevron (**{chevron-down}**).
+1. Select **Admin Area**.
+1. Select **Settings > Integrations**.
+1. Select an integration.
+1. Select the **Projects using custom settings** tab.
+
+## Manage group-level default settings for a project integration
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/2543) in GitLab 13.6.
+
+1. Navigate to the group's **Settings > Integrations**.
+1. Select an integration.
+1. Enter configuration details and select **Save changes**.
+
+WARNING:
+This may affect all or most of the subgroups and projects belonging to the group. Review the details below.
+
+If this is the first time you are setting up group-level settings for an integration:
+
+- The integration is enabled for all subgroups and projects belonging to the group that don't already have
+ this integration configured, if you have the **Enable integration** toggle turned on in the group-level
+ settings.
+- Subgroups and projects that already have the integration configured are not affected, but can choose to use
+ the inherited settings at any time.
+
+When you make further changes to the group defaults:
+
+- They are immediately applied to all subgroups and projects belonging to the group that have the integration
+ set to use default settings.
+- They are immediately applied to newer subgroups and projects, even those created after you last saved defaults for the
+ integration. If your group-level default setting has the **Enable integration** toggle turned on,
+ the integration is automatically enabled for all such subgroups and projects.
+
+- Subgroups and projects with custom settings selected for the integration are not immediately affected and
+ may choose to use the latest defaults at any time.
+
+Only the complete settings for an integration can be inherited. Per-field inheritance
+is [planned](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/2137). This would allow
+administrators to update settings inherited by subgroups and projects without enabling the
+integration on all non-configured groups and projects by default.
+
+### Remove a group-level default setting
+
+1. Navigate to the group's **Settings > Integrations**.
+1. Select an integration.
+1. Select **Reset** and confirm.
+
+Resetting a group-level default setting removes integrations that use default settings and belong to a project or subgroup of the group.
