Get a license

You can obtain production and extension licenses in one of two ways:

• As a license string:
  • You can get a free Native Maps SDK Lite license string by signing in here with your ArcGIS account.
  • You can get a Basic, Standard, Advanced or extension license string by purchasing one or more ArcGIS Maps SDKs for Native Apps deployment packs.
• From an ArcGIS account through user authentication:
  • Every user is assigned a specific user type, such as Viewer, Mobile Worker, or Professional, by their portal's administrator. Their user type provides access to specific production and extension licenses.
  • Your app must request that the user signs in using their ArcGIS account to obtain these licenses.
