# ASE License

To start ASE, you need a trial license which is valid for 30-days. At the end of the trial period, ASE stops accepting the traffic. NOTE: Contact PingIdentity sales to get an ASE trial license.

**Configure ASE license**

After receiving the ASE license key, download and save the license file as `PingIntelligence.lic`. Copy the license file to the /opt/pingidentity/ase/config directory and start ASE.

**Update an existing license** If your license expires, obtain an updated license from PingIntelligence for APIs sales and replace the license file in the `/opt/pingidentity/ase/config` directory. Stop and then start ASE to activate the new license.
