Licensing a visual from powerbi app source

Hi,
I have used thsi visual in my powerbi report in powerbi desktop and have it published on powerbi service
https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-US/product/power-bi-visuals/truvizinc1674781244292.date-picker-by...

I asked my manager for a license so that the visual could be used on the powerbi service. They have given me a Microsoft PowerBI Custom Visual File (.pbiviz). i have imported it in the desktop and have published it on the service as well but its still asking for license. They have purchased the visual. Do i still need key or anything else?

Thanks

  2. Refresh the Session: After the license is assigned, it can take up to an hour for the license to be recognized. Refresh your Power BI session by restarting Power BI Desktop or refreshing your web browser2.
