== License Management
When you install {kib}, it generates a Basic license
with no expiration date. Go to *Management > License Management* to view the
status of your license, start a 30-day trial, or install a new license.
To learn more about the available license levels,
see https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions[the subscription page].
You can activate a 30-day trial license to try out the full set of
https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions[Platinum features], including machine learning,
advanced security, alerting, graph capabilities, and more.
When you activate a new license level, new features will appear in the left sidebar
of the *Management* page.

At the end of the trial period, the Platinum features operate in a
{stack-ov}/license-expiration.html[degraded mode]. You can revert to a Basic
license, extend the trial, or purchase a subscription.
TIP: If {security-features} are enabled, before you revert to a Basic license or install
a Gold or Platinum license, you must configure Transport Layer Security (TLS) in {es}.
