Licensing

Your Craft Cloud Pro or Team plan includes a license to run the corresponding version of Craft.

#Changing Editions

If you need to switch editions, please contact the support team.

After your plan has been adjusted, make the corresponding edition change in a local environment, commit the project config changes, and redeploy each of the project’s environments.

It is possible to deploy a project with mismatched editions, but the cloud/up command will return an error.

#Plugins

Cloud does not cover first- or third-party plugin licenses. You are still responsible for purchasing any commercial plugins when your project goes live.

The first time an admin logs in to the control panel from a public domain (opens new window), they should see a prompt to resolve any outstanding licensing issues. If not, use the

  1. Utilities
  2. Clear Caches
screen to clear all caches, log out, and log in again.

#Development

Craft is free to evaluate during development, and in staging environments (on or off Cloud). You do not need an active Cloud subscription to begin development, but we recommend starting a seven-day trial (opens new window) to get familiar with the platform.
