There is no place to input Product ID to move trial edition to full edition. #67

This page describes users must have valid product key and it looks we can input Product ID when we move trial edition to full edition. However, there is no place to input Product ID while completing trial edition. Also, there is no place to show it or input it in the Azure DevOps Server Administration Console. This is also applied to the other versions like TFS 2018. So, this page confuse users.

I have installed Azure DevOps Server 2019 on-premise. I cannot find the Product ID, License Type or Expiration as described in the article. Can you include a screenshot of the Server Administration Console where it shows this information?

I am having the same issue, I can not find the Product ID, License Type or Expiration as described in the article. How do I know whether the currently running version is a trial or not?

I have some problem. In new license mode (aftrer update 2 TFS) not need for set Product Id. See details: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/devops/team-foundation-server-update-2-trial/ "Starting with Update 2, you will not need to enter a product key into any version of TFS. If you download TFS from www.visualstudio.com, however, there will continue to be a trial experience. This experience is only there to help you comply with our server and user licensing requirements. You can opt out of it up front, at any point during the trial, or even after it expires. Critically, your server will continue working even if you let your trial expire. When you complete the trial, or when it expires, you need to ensure that you have a valid license in order to remain compliant."
