“I am excited to announce that group-based licensing is now generally available! As part of our general availability release, we made the service more scalable by adding these capabilities:”
- Developer APIs in Microsoft Graph to allow you to programmatically read group-based licensing assignments on groups, as well as programmatically get assignment status and errors.
- Ability to reprocess group-based licensing assignments for a single user.
- Simplified licensing requirements for group-based licensing. Users who are targeted for group-based licensing need Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) Basic (and above), or Office 365 E3/A3 (and above).
To start using group-based licensing, look at our Assign licenses to users by group membership in Azure AD documentation.
- ANNOUNCEMENT: Azure AD group-based license management is now generally available!
