How do I apply licenses in Meraki SM

[CLL1]

I am using Systems Manager to handle MDM for Android tablets in my org, have been for many years.  I just renewed and my reseller/VAR gave me my claim code. I successfully added my licenses to my account, but I can't figure out how to apply them to my devices. 

Here you can see my expired licenses as well as my new licenses.  If I click actions and then choose to renew, it tells me there's no devices to renew. But I have 26 devices in my account. So I'm confused.

Licensing devices in Meraki MDM requires adding SM licenses to your organization via Organization > License info and ensuring you have available licenses to cover the device count. Once licensed, enroll Android devices using Systems Manager > Manage > Add devices

As stated, the devices are already enrolled. I have added the licenses to my account as the image I included in the OP shows. What I am trying to figure out is how to attach the licenses to the already enrolled devices.

You appear to be on PDL, see here: https://documentation.meraki.com/Platform_Management/Product_Information/Licensing/Meraki_Per-Device... You should be able to assign them to your SM network.

That worked, thank you!

You apply licenses to a network not a device. SM is going EOS soon so I would start looking for alternatives so that you are well ahead of the curve and have plenty of time to plan a migration to another MDM.

[CLL1]

Yes, that's on my radar. I was on the verge of buying 3 years just so I won't have to worry about it for a while but opted to just buy the 1 year so I can vet and figure out a new MDM for my relatively small fleet of Android devices.

[BlakeRichardson]

I think you did the right thing by only buying a years worth. I don't manage any Android devices so I can't offer any suggestions sorry. I know MS Intune supports Android but I've no idea if it's any good.
