# Requesting Sentieon licenses for private workflows
<a name="private-workflows-subscribe"></a>

If your private workflow uses Sentieon software, you need a Senieon license. Follow these steps to request and set up a license for the Sentieon software:
+ Request a Sentieon license 
  + Send an email to the Sentieon support group (support@sentieon.com) to request a software license.
    + Provide your AWS Canonical User ID in the email.
    + Find your AWS Canonical User ID by following [ these instructions](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/accounts/latest/reference/manage-acct-identifiers.html#FindCanonicalId).
+ Update your HealthOmics service role to grant it access to the Sentieon licensing server proxy and Sentieon Omics bucket in your Region. The following example grants access in `us-east-1`. If required, replace this text with your Region.
