Managing AI Developer
AI Developer is a consumption-based add-on managed through the existing IQ Server licensing flow.
Manage Entitlement and Credits
An administrator installs and manages the AI Developer license in IQ Server. The product license experience displays the AI Developer marketing name and licensed-credit information for entitled customers.

Use your organization’s normal license-management process to:
Confirm that AI Developer is enabled.
Review licensed-credit information.
Coordinate renewal or additional-credit needs with your Sonatype account team.
Manage Policy
Sonatype AI Developer uses your configured IQ policies to determine and report on which components are considered policy-compliant.

By default, it uses the root organization; you can select the context (i.e., organization or application) to override the default.
See the main Configuring Policies help documentation for more information on policy management.
Help Developers Adopt AI Developer
Start with a small pilot using an approved AI coding assistant and representative dependency workflows. Capture connection issues, useful prompt patterns, and internal guardrails before expanding access to more teams.
Troubleshoot Access
If AI Developer is not available in the product switcher or a developer cannot connect, verify the license, available credits, IQ Server version, user access, and network reachability.
If the problem continues, collect the assistant name, connection method, relevant error text, and the affected IQ Server version before contacting Sonatype Support.
