I have just made a trial installation of the Elastic Cloud to test out document level security. But when I configure document level security via the Elasticsearch API I get an error message saying that "Document and field level security is not supported in this license".
Why does the trial deployment have these license limitations? How can I evaluate the feature then?

What is the output from `GET /_license`?

What did you install exactly?
What people typically mean when they refer to [Elastic Cloud](https://cloud.elastic.co/) is our hosted solution, but that doesn't require installation.

It looks like you have a platinum license and [the subscriptions page](https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions) indicates field and document level security should be available at that level so it should work.

@boskjoett please don't post things like your Cloud ID, as it will let other people connect to your Elasticsearch cluster. I've delete the post that contained this info.

On the [elastic.co](http://elastic.co) web site I clicked "Start a free trial", so I have a trial deployment of the Elastic stack.

I tried setting up a role with document level security using Postman, and it worked. So it works. I will close this issue.
