We offer a free HiveManager version called Connect that does not require any licenses, so they only cost is the initial hardware purchase. However, Connect does not offer the more advanced enterprise networking level features that our paid HiveManagers offer. This guide reviews how to register for a Connect instance in case you're interested: https://thehivecommunity.aerohive.com/s/article/Registering-for-HiveManager-Connect

Would it be possible to get a temporary key to manage the 4th AP (esp. to upload the configuration oft he other 3 AP)

It should work then correctly also if the temporary key has expired.

Please help – Im not able to „clone“ the 4th AP in „Connect“ with the configuration of the other 3 AP´s

Unfortunately given the major differences in what each platform can do, that is not possible. You'd have to rebuild your configuration in Connect.

I wouldn't be able to provide a temporary key for this purpose. Once the AP is in Connect, the configuration from your Select instance would be invalid.
