Question

Does adding dual entitlements start the 180-day period to move from legacy licensing?

Environment
  • Alteryx One
  • Dual entitlements
  • Unified licensing
  • Legacy license keys
  • Designer 25.1 and later
  • Platform / Onboarding / Admin
Answer

No. Adding dual entitlements does not start the 180-day transition period. It also does not affect the existing contract license keys.

The 180-day legacy-key extension begins when the account moves to the new Unified licensing model at its next contract renewal.

Additional Information

At the time of renewal:

  • Existing legacy license keys are extended for 180 days to provide a transition period.
  • The account receives Unified single-seat license keys.
  • Email-based licensing is available for Alteryx Designer 25.1 and later.

Therefore, simply adding dual entitlements before the renewal does not initiate the 180-day transition period. The transition starts with the account's move to the new licensing model at renewal.
