[iainhallam]

May be the same as #6695; would that allow checking out licences to users and/or computers?

[marcquark]

@iainhallam yes, it would. The PR i opened implements that. It's probably not going to be merged until v5 is finished. When it's out i'm going to revisit my PR and update it so it will hopefully make it into a release eventually.

Adding to the list of users who would like to see this functionality.

[marcquark]

@TonyAndraza and anybody else reading this, the feature has made it into a release already, unfortunately the API reference is lacking documentation. The related issue has been closed as stale unfortunately: #6696

You can list seats using /licenses/:id/seats and you can perform a checkin/checkout by PUTing the new information to /licenses/:id/seats/:id (the former ID being the license ID, the latter the license seat ID). The API will automatically derive the information whether it's a checkin or checkout, and log it accordingly, as the GUI would

[maufimauf]

@marcquark Thanks a bunch! That works.

I searched everywhere and spend many hours with trying but only to get plain rejections.
Would be great if it could find it's way into the documentation.

[uberbrady]

Our documentation platform allows you to submit change requests; please do!

[marcquark]

@uberbrady i'd love to! I might just be too dumb, but i can't figure out where? There's a button in the "Guides" section, yes. But it's a dead end as far as i can tell, only allows editing "normal" pages but not the API reference. Would you be able to provide some guidance on how to submit change requests specifically for the API reference?

@snipe I just learned that #6695 has been closed and released and is now available to us, after reading this other issue here 🙈 I posted a note there referencing this issue here.

But then I also noticed that the docs for v6.0.0 (which is the default selection in the api reference) don't contain that endpoint. Took me a while to figure out that only v5.4.4 contains the relevant information.

Would you want me to open a new issue or is this something you can easily fix?
