This assumes you have created your Kong-Admin-Token. The following curl command can be used to get the license report for KongEE.
curl
--request GET
--header "Kong-Admin-Token: abc123"
--url https://kong.example.com/license/report
Something like this should be returned.

Let's say you've received a new license from Kong. Here is how you would install the new license using curl, replacing the data values with the appropriate values from the license.json file you received from Kong.
curl
--request POST
--header "Kong-Admin-Token: abc123"
--url https://kong.example.com/licenses
--data '{
payload='{
"license":{
"payload":{
"admin_seats":"1",
"customer":"Example Company",
"dataplanes":"1",
"license_creation_date":"2021-09-30",
"license_expiration_date":"2022-09-30",
"license_key":"abc123",
"product_subscription":"Konnect Enterprise",
"support_plan":"None"},
"signature":"xyz123",
"version":"1"}
}'
}'
