About the Trials page

The Trials page allows you to view details about product or feature trials that are active or can be started. The Trials page also provides usage metrics for trials and the ability for superusers to upgrade to full access of the product or feature. To access the Trials page, go to Account > Billing > Trials.

Before you begin

• Only users assigned the billing or superuser role can access this page.
• Be sure to review the limitations on trials before starting any product or feature trial.

About the Trials page

When your user role allows you access to this page, a list of cards for product lines with available trials appears. Click Details within any product line to view cards representing available feature trials across your account, including ones that were enabled by other users with access. Use the search bar to filter for specific trials.

Starting a trial

Superusers can start a trial from the Trials page. To start a trial for an entire product line, click Start trial from the product line card and then confirm you want to start all trials for the product line. To start a trial for a specific feature, click Details within any product line card and then click Start trial on the card for the feature you want to trial.

Once a product or feature trial has been activated, you can click the information icon to view the following details, regardless of whether that trial is now expired:

• the date on which the trial expires
• the date on which the trial started
• the user who started the trial
  NOTE

  The user name appears as "Fastly" if the trial was started by an internal Fastly admin and "Deleted user" if the trial was started by a user which has since been deleted.

• usage details for the trial
• a link to relevant documentation for the product or feature

A trial can only be started once per account. Once the trial is over, you can upgrade your account to full access of the product or feature by clicking Purchase.

Monitoring trial usage

Once a trial has been started, click Usage details to view usage metrics about your trial period. You can view these usage metrics even after the trial has expired.
