== 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}.
