+== Use the Redpanda Operator to check license status
+
+If you deployed a Redpanda cluster in Kubernetes using the Redpanda Operator, you can monitor the Enterprise Edition license status from the Redpanda custom resource. The operator integrates license monitoring into the resource's `status.conditions` field, allowing you to get the license state with `kubectl`.
+
+Identify your Redpanda resources:
+
+[,bash]
+----
+kubectl get redpanda -A
+----
+
+Example output:
+
+[.no-copy]
+----
+NAMESPACE   NAME      LICENSE       READY   STATUS
+redpanda    cluster   Valid         True    Redpanda reconciliation succeeded
+----
+
+The `License` field indicates whether the license is valid. Possible values include:
+
+- `Valid`: The license is valid.
+- `Expired`: The license has expired.
+- `Not Present`: No license is applied.
+
+The Redpanda Operator performs a license check during reconciliation, which is triggered in the following cases:
+
+- If changes are made to the Redpanda resource or its status.
+
+- If changes are made to resources managed by the operator, such as the StatefulSet resources for brokers or Deployment resources for Redpanda Console.
+
+- If no changes occur, the operator reconciles every 10 hours (default cache resync interval).
+
+- If you force reconciliation by making a no-op change, such as adding an annotation, to the Redpanda resource.
