Hello,

I just want make sure that

1. For AS Code, the license is together with AS software, right?
2. I heard about for AS Copilot, there needs extra license, is it right? if it is, what is the procedure for licensing Copilot? For now I installed AS 6.5 I didn’t find anyway we need the license for Copilot is it because this is still a beta version? What is the license mode for Copilot?

Thanks!

Hello,

[The AS license is required](https://help.br-automation.com/#/en/6/ascode/introduction/general_information/licensing.html) to use AS Code.

I understand from the help (but I could be wrong) there is no special license for the AS Copilot, but [it’s limited](https://help.br-automation.com/#/en/6/ascode/introduction/ai_assistance/accessing_as_copilot.html). A status of limits can be seen in the AS Code if you enable AS Copilot.

Hello Pavel,

Thanks, but on Copro I find a page which says we need a license. So I am not sure.

Hi @shenyang.zhou, I have modified your picture. There was a name of the author visible, which is against community guidelines. Data privacy must always be taken into consideration. Thanks, Jaroslav

Back to discussion, is there anyone who is using AS Code and knows what license is needed for Copilot?

Hi @shenyang.zhou I discussed this with R&D team and for AS Code and Copilot (at the moment) you need only valid AS6 license.
