**Pre-requisite – Before applying a license, ensure that a license has been purchased and is available on the portal account that the Origin is registered too. **
Applying a license is managed via the CinCraft portal.
- Navigate to the CinCraft [Portal](https://www.cincraft.zeiss.com) and log into your account
- Navigate to the “Device and License Management” tab and locate your hardware from the list of registered devices.
- The “**+****”** button will display a popup window displaying all available licences that can be applied to the Origin

- Only “unassigned” licences will be available to assign. That means if a licence has already been assigned to another device, then it will not be displayed here.
- Once the desired licence has been selected, simply press “**activate now**” to download the licence to the Origin
:::hint{type="info"}
The Origin must be connected to the internet for this to work

:::hint{type="warning"}
Once a licence has been assigned to a device for the first time then it is considered as being Activated. This means it will expire at the duration end from the moment it was activated, revoking a licence will allow you to move it to another device but it will NOT stop the licence from expiring while it is unassigned.
:::
In the License Tab of the settings panel of CinCraft Scenario, all currently active licences will be displayed.
Press the “**Fetch Licenses**” button to refresh the list after a licence has been assigned to the device via the portal
