Provide billable user counts and host license classification metadata (Non-profit, Community, Open-Source, Academic) in Marketplace Vendor License Reports & API

XMLWordPrintable

      Current Situation

      1. Inflated Opportunity Size on Public / Open Instances:
        • evaluationOpportunitySize currently calculates the opportunity based on the total registered user count of the host product (e.g., an open Jira instance showing 46,000+ public/community users).
        • It does not distinguish between actual paid/billable active seats and non-billable registered users, skewing conversion forecasting.
      1. Lack of Host Licensing Context & Concessions:
        • The vendor License API and reporting exports return generic details such as parentProductName and parentProductEdition (e.g., Standard), but omit whether the host holds a Community, Open-Source, Non-Profit, Academic, or discounted status.
        • Partners lack the contextual data required to evaluate why a user count is high or qualify leads appropriately.

      Suggested Solution

      1. Surface Billable / Paid Active Users:
        • Introduce a dedicated field (e.g., billableUserCount or hostPaidSeats) in the vendor license API response and report exports that reflects the host instance’s actual billable user tier.
        • Alternatively, update evaluationOpportunitySize calculation logic to exclude non-billable and public user accounts.
      1. Enrich Host License Metadata (withDataInsights payload):
        • Expose host-level classification and discount attributes, such as:
          • hostLicenseCategory: e.g., COMMERCIAL, COMMUNITY, OPEN_SOURCE, NON_PROFIT, ACADEMIC, GOVERNMENT
          • hostDiscountType / hostProgram: Indicators specifying if the host instance is on a specialized concession or discount tier.
