Editing your Tempo Folio License

To enter your Tempo Folio License details:

  1. Log in as a user with the 'JIRA System Administrators' global permission.
  2. Click the Add-ons item in the cog menu at the top right.
  3. Select the Manage add-ons link on the left navigation bar. The Universal Plugin Manager page will be displayed.

Licensing

If you need to change your Tempo Folio license details at any time in the future, please refer to Specifying your License Details. Please note that if you are using a commercial (i.e. not an evaluation) license for Tempo Folio then it must match your JIRA's license. For example, if you have a JIRA 25 User Commercial license you must have a Tempo Folio 25 User Commercial license. Tempo Folio evaluation licenses do not need to match JIRA licenses.
