### About license synchronization
After you enable license synchronization, you'll be able to view license usage for your entire enterprise account, across {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} and {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_cloud %}. {% data variables.product.prodname_github_connect %} syncs license between {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} and {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_cloud %} weekly. For more information, see "[Managing your {% data variables.product.prodname_enterprise %} license](/enterprise/{{currentVersion}}/admin/installation/managing-your-github-enterprise-license)."
You can also manually upload {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} user license information to {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_cloud %}. For more information, see "[Connecting {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} to {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_cloud %}](/enterprise/{{ currentVersion }}/admin/guides/installation/connecting-github-enterprise-server-to-github-enterprise-cloud)."
