Licenses are how Yext determines which subscription services (i.e., Listings, Reviews, Social, Pages) should apply to certain entities. Assigning a license to an entity makes it eligible for use with a Yext subscription.

This article explains how to manually assign licenses to entities in Yext. To assign licenses automatically based on preset criteria, see Automatically Assign Licenses to Entities with a Saved Filter. To remove licenses from entities, see Remove Licenses from Entities.
