Introduction

Maia Resources is your access point to increase the capacity of Maia Units for using Maia Make in Studio Pro. It allows admins to provision, upgrade, downgrade, and deprovision Maia Units and manage the resources for Maia Make for their company. For more information on Maia Make’s capabilities, refer to Mendix AI Assistance (Maia).

Prerequisites

  1. Sufficient token entitlements – The user should have an adequate number of available Mendix Cloud Tokens to allocate for Maia Unit provisioning.
  2. Valid subscription plan – The user's Mendix subscription must be based on the FY21 price list or newer. Older subscription plans are not eligible for provisioning.
  3. Single account ownership – The user must have a single account. Owning multiple accounts is not supported for Maia Unit provisioning.
  4. Enterprise platform subscription – The user must have a single active enterprise platform subscription.

Overview of Maia Units

The overview page provides a centralized view of all Maia Units currently provisioned for your company.

  • Type – The type or resources; either Free or Provisioned
  • Cloud Tokens – The number of Cloud Tokens used
  • Capacity (Maia Units) – The number of Maia Units per month your organization can use
  • State – Whether the resources is active, or ready to be downgraded or deprovisioned

Increasing Your Maia Units Capacity

  1. Make sure you have Cloud Tokens available Cloud Tokens are purchased through your Mendix subscription. If your organization already has Cloud Tokens allocated to other services, you can reassign them. Check your available balance in the Control Center. If you need to purchase more, contact your Mendix account manager.
  2. Convert Cloud Tokens to Maia Units In the Control Center, go to Maia Resources and select Provision Resource. Choose how many Cloud Tokens to allocate. Each Cloud Token gives you 100 Maia Units per month.
  3. Use Maia in Studio Pro Your new capacity is active immediately. Studio Pro unblocks and Maia Make becomes available again.

Key Considerations

  • Monthly cycle – Your Maia Units reset each month. Unused units do not roll over.
  • Upgrades – Upgrades take effect immediately. Downgrades and cancellations take effect at the end of the current month; you keep access until then.
  • Free allowance – Every Mendix account includes a base allocation each month before any Cloud Tokens are needed.

Provisioning Maia Units

You can provision any Maia resources directly within the Control Center using the self-service capability. To do this, select Provision Resource.

This allows you to select how many Cloud Token to use to provision Maia Units. Every Cloud Token provisions 100 Maia Units per month.

Click Provision to select an amount of cloud tokens. An pop-up shows the Maia Units capacity that will be added. Clicking Provision again completes the process. You are taken back to the Maia Resource page where the newly provisioned Maia Units appear in the list.

Upgrading Maia Units

To upgrade your provisioned Maia Units, select a plan of type Provisioned from your resources overview and click Edit Resource. This opens the page of your current resource, showing the amount of allotted Cloud Tokens. Increase the amount of Cloud Tokens to upgrade your provisioned Maia Units, then click Save Changes. Upgrades will take effect immediately.

Downgrading Maia Units

To downgrade your amount of provisioned Maia Units, select a plan of type Provisioned from your resources overview and press Edit Resource. This opens the page for your current resource, showing the amount of allotted Cloud Tokens. Decrease the amount of Cloud Tokens to downgrade your provisioned Maia Units, then click Save Changes to confirm.

Deprovisioning Maia Units

To deprovision, select a plan of type Provisioned from your resources overview and click Deprovision. A confirmation pop-up window appears. Click Deprovision to confirm.
