Do I need licenses in development environments?

No, you only need licenses for your production environment.

You are free to use the extension in your development and test environments without requiring additional licenses. This allows you to configure, test, and validate your dashboards before going live, without incurring extra costs.

✅ Note: If you need to simulate production-like data or user loads, we still recommend using the same extension version intended for production to ensure consistency.
