I do not believe license assignment is part of the API capabilities.

Hello Saiteja,
Setting user state via API is not supported.
License management via API is not supported either. When selecting LicenseType upon user creation, you're not assigning the license directly. The system is doing it based on the LicenseType entered on the user object. I tested this in my demo environment and the system is also assigning trial license upon user creation. I don't think there's a way around this behaviour.
I hope this answers your question.

Hi Roland,
Thanks for your response.
let say we have assigned a trial license to a user via API. As per our understanding user can access Clarizen even if user assigned trial license. once the trial license got expired after a month, Will Clarizen assign license from available non trial licenses from the Clarizen system?

Hello Saiteja,
I think the system will assign a license of the same type if one is available.
I hope this answers your question.

Note: The user has to log in during the trial period for a new license to be assigned.

Hello Saiteja,
As per the error, setting the Admin field via the API is not supported.
Best regards,
