Resolution

A separate license file is required for App Protection . This needs to be downloaded from the licensing portal and installed on the license server .

Once this is done correctly App Protection will be listed as a separate component on the license server .

Note - When  uploading the license file to the license server ensure that the Start date of the App Protection increment is valid . In below example the .lic file shows a start date of 2024 which was  not yet valid.
If this is the case download a .lic file with a valid start date .
