Hello, @o.briggs
I am currently having issues with my Autodesk Fusion 360 subscription. I opened a case (#21642418) with Autodesk about 9 days ago now and am still struggling to get this working.
Thank you in advance!

@bthomp31 Thank you for your patience! I think I have identified the issue.
When you completed your education verification, you selected IT Admin as your role in your institution.
With education verification, IT Admins are given the ability to assign licenses to others in the institution, and are able to install Fusion 360 across the school with a lab installation package, however IT Admins are not given a Fusion 360 license to use themselves. This will be why you are unable to activate any license, because as an IT Admin you do not get given a license.
Only those with the student or educator account type are given a Fusion 360 license to use themselves.
Would you like me to change your account type from IT Admin to Educator so you can get a license? Please keep in mind this will remove your access to the Fusion 360 Lab installation package.

Hello, @o.briggs -
Yes! Please change my account to Educator so that I can get a license. I do not need access to the Fusion 360 Lab installation package. I just need to be able to use it personally.
Thank you!

@bthomp31 thanks for confirming.
I have changed your account to be an educator account. If you visit the Get Products page on the Autodesk Education website and go through the process of downloading Fusion 360 again. You can ignore the download file itself since you have already installed Fusion 360, but the process of doing this with your new educator label will assign you a Fusion 360 license to use.
Let us know if you have any further issues!
