Hi n8n team,
I accidentally activated my free Community Edition license key on my n8n Cloud workspace instead of my local self-hosted Docker instance.
Now on my self-hosted Docker instance I no longer see the unlock flow or usage and plan section, and I cannot activate the free registered Community Edition features locally.
Could you please detach, reset, or reissue the free license key associated with my email so I can activate it on my local self-hosted instance instead?
My setup:
n8n version: 2.12.2
Install type: Docker self-hosted
Issue: free key was activated on cloud by mistake
Expected result: activate the free Community Edition features on my local Docker instance
Thank you!

Hi @Mai_Bui Welcome!
If you want your local docker instance to have a community license attached, probably you have set that already, but now you can just remove that license from the self hosted one via n8n license:clear something like this:
docker exec -u node -it [n8n-container-name] n8n license:clear
and once it is cleared just restart your n8n container, and head over to Settings > Usage & Plans > Unlock and enter your email there and then you will receive a fresh community license for free. Let me know if this works.
