### Check the **Use AccessNow License** box &#x20;

AccessNow uses a REST API to connect to the Command Center. While REST API connections require separate licenses, AccessNow customers can connect using their existing AccessNow license without needing additional REST licenses.

Check the **Use AccessNow License** box to enable the license.

{% hint style="info" %}
To activate this option, the Command Centre license file must be updated to include the relevant AccessNow licenses.
{% endhint %}
