Assign, Change, or Remove a License in 8x8 Admin Console
Objective
Assign, change, or remove a user's License in 8x8 Admin Console. When your organization gets a new user, you'll need to assign a license. If you have a user whose role has changed and they need greater access to 8x8 services (for example, adding Contact Center access in addition to 8x8 Work), you may want to change their license. If a user leaves your organization, you will need to remove their license.
