## FAQ

### Find your deployment ID

You'll need your deployment ID to request a trial or license key.

From your Coder dashboard, select your user avatar, then select the **Copy to
clipboard** icon at the bottom:

### How we calculate license seat consumption

Licenses are consumed based on the status of user accounts.
Only users who have been active in the last 90 days consume license seats.

Consult the [user status documentation](../users/index.md#user-status) for more information about active, dormant, and suspended user statuses.
