      Problem Definition

      Currently, in order to use a paid plugin in Confluence a license has to be purchased that matches the user license in Confluence. This causes an issue, for example when an instance is set up for 2000 users, but only ~100 users use this macro.

      Suggested Solution

      Allow for smaller licenses to be purchased, and set up plugin permissions to only allow the amount of licensed plugin users to use the plugin.

      Workaround

      No existing workaround other than purchasing the full plugin.

            Disappointing to see this rejected/delayed like JRASERVER-59932.

            We're on a 250-user license for confluence for the organisation and cannot justify the cost of a 250-user license just for a team of 30 to have some additional plugins. As we've grown in total users, we've stopped renewing plugins and are finding free alternatives for anything that's not used across the majority of the organisation.
