In either distributed-installation strategy, you can simplify the licensing process by including a file that pre-populates the serial number and authorization code for users so they don’t need to enter it themselves.

• On machine’s manager

Step 1 : Ensure that the appropriate version of SketchUp Pro is installed on all computers.

In that file, add your network serial number and authorization code in the following format:

{“serial_number”:”YOUR SERIAL NUMBER”, “auth_code”:”YOUR AUTHORIZATION CODE”}

Step 3 : Save the file and distribute it to each machine.

On Microsoft Windows, distribute the file to C:\ProgramData\SketchUp\SketchUp 2020.
