    • Active: Member has accepted and joined the hub.

Assign licenses

Before you start

To assign licenses in bulk, you can import a list of members using Autodesk account management. Prepare a CSV file with each member’s name and email address on a separate line, like this:

First name Last name Email address
John Smith jsmith@email.com
Jane Doe jdoe@email.com

When you import the CSV file, members who already have licenses won’t be assigned another.

Assign the licenses

  1. Open the Fusion web client.

  2. Click your profile image in the top-right corner of the page and select My Account, or go to manage.autodesk.com.

  3. Go to User Management > By Product.

  6. In the dialog that appears, choose one of the following ways to assign your licenses:

  7. Click Assign.

Assigned members will now appear in the license list.

Tip: Under User Management, you can also assign licenses by user, or create groups of users for bulk license assignment.

Once licenses are assigned, you can optionally Create a project for the members of your hub to work on, or let them do it themselves. It all depends on your organization and how you want to distribute responsibilities.
