# Assigning a license

If you have more than one active license, use the **Licenses** page to change the association between your environments and your licenses.

|   | A license can be associated with multiple environments, but an environment can be associated with only one license. |

## Steps

* To view the environments to which license is currently assigned to, click the license entry to open the license details panel and click **Environments**.

  The license details can help you determine if you need to purchase separate PingOne solutions, such as one for workforce and one for external customers.

* To reassign licenses, click the **More Options (⋮) icon** and then select a different license.

  PingOne allows you to reassign an environment to a license that doesn't contain enough services to downgrade when services are no longer needed.

  |   | A warning appears if you choose a license that includes fewer services than the environment is currently using.You can select **Reassign** to proceed with the new license or **Cancel** to keep your current settings. |

  Each license supports a specific limit on the number of environments that can be associated with it at any given time. A warning appears when attempting to reassign an environment to a license when you exceed that limit.

* To view the license assigned to an environment on the **Environments** page, go to **Settings > Environment Properties**.
