Try looking in your Account Settings and then you'll see what you have access to based on the type of account you have.

But I do agree... the documentation is poor because it says this:

You need to have an administrator or linguist role to create adapted language pairs.

And in your account you probably see this:

And also this:

So I seem to be an admin here, and yet I also see this:

So it isn't very clear that me being an admin of my own account doesn't mean I get access to everything!

The important part is this, that isn't explained too well:

This is telling me my account type is "Trados" which essentially means I have the free account provided as part of Trados Studio.  I am an Admin on my own free account, and since it's free the features I get are limited - see this KB article.

So if you want more click on the Upgrade Subscription and you'll find the costs and features.

Thanks! In other words, a subscription upgrade is necessary (which I should have found out by myself). However, not just any upgrade will work:

In other words, I need to pay €41.66 per month to be able to use ONE adaptable language pair. 

Anyway, as you say, the documentation is lacking, because having an administrator role is, as you say, not enough.

I think my question arose because I had probably had access, in 2022, to an adaptive language pair as part of a free trial of the Adaptive subscription and now, a long time afterwards, I did not and had forgotten why. And instead of digging a bit, I was lazy enough to pose the question here. But maybe it can lead to the documentation being slightly updated.

In fact, if I had read my own text on this in the manual, I would have found all the answers...
