Network requests for Copilot are routed based on a user’s Copilot subscription. Requests for Copilot Individual, Copilot Business, and Copilot Enterprise users now route through different endpoints.
This change enables Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers to make sure all Copilot users on their networks are accessing Copilot through their Copilot Business or Copilot Enterprise subscription, and that all Copilot user data is handled according to the terms of their Copilot Business or Copilot Enterprise agreement. In essence, customers will be able to use their network firewall to explicitly allow access to Copilot Business or Copilot Enterprise, and/or block access to Copilot Individual.
Today we enabled enforcement of the user’s subscription on the new endpoints, ensuring only Copilot Business users can connect to Copilot Business endpoints and only Copilot Enterprise users can connect to Copilot Enterprise endpoints.

As a GitHub Enterprise Cloud organization owner, you and your designated users can now use API insights to visualize REST API activity for your entire organization or specific apps and users. This new feature, currently in public preview, helps you understand the sources of your REST API activity and manage against your primary rate limits—giving you visibility into the timeframe, apps, and API endpoints involved.
Who can access it
The API insights feature is available only at the organization level. By default, only organization owners can access it. However, organization owners can grant access to non-owners by creating a custom role at the organization level, assigning the permission named View organization API insights to the custom role, and then assigning the custom role to an organization member or team. See the documentation for managing organization custom roles.
Where to find it
The API insights public preview feature is enabled for all GitHub Enterprise Cloud organizations. To access it on your organization home page, select Insights near the top of the page, and then select REST API on the left side of the page.
How to use it
Use the Period and Interval drop-downs to choose the range of time displayed in the chart and how granularly to display REST API requests on the chart. These drop-downs also set the time range for the “Total REST requests,” the “Primary-rate-limited requests,” and the Actors table below the chart.
The Actors table displays the GitHub Apps and users that made REST API requests in the current organization within the selected time period. Select a GitHub App to display its REST API activity and any primary-rate-limiting. Select a user to display their personal REST API activity from personal access tokens (PATs) and OAuth apps acting on their behalf.
Refer to the documentation for API insights for more details about understanding your organization’s REST API activity and investigating primary-rate-limiting.

Copilot Autofix for Dependabot is now available in private preview for TypeScript repositories.
This new feature combines the power of GitHub Copilot with Dependabot, making it easier than ever to automatically fix breaking changes introduced by dependency updates. With Copilot Autofix, you can save time and minimize disruptions by receiving AI-generated fixes to resolve breaking changes caused by dependency upgrades in Dependabot-authored pull requests.
Why Copilot Autofix for Dependabot?
Dependency updates can introduce breaking changes that lead to failing CI tests and deployment delays. Identifying the exact cause of these breaks and implementing the correct fix can require significant time and effort, making it challenging to stay on the most up-to-date and secure version of a dependency.
Dependabot can now leverage the power of Copilot Autofix to analyze dependency updates that fail CI tests and suggest fixes, all within the pull request. Copilot Autofix for Dependabot not only helps keep your dependencies up to date, but also keeps your CI green. Staying up-to-date on dependencies upgrades with breaking changes is now easier and faster than ever.
How to join the private preview
To sign up for the feature waitlist, fill out the form to express your interest. We’ll notify selected participants as we roll out the feature over the coming weeks.
This feature is available in private preview to GitHub Advanced Security customers on cloud deployments. Starting today, we support TypeScript repos with tests set up in GitHub Actions.

Please keep an eye on future changelogs for more updates as the feature moves to public preview and general availability.
Security campaigns with Copilot Autofix are now in public preview. Available as part of GitHub Advanced Security, security campaigns rapidly reduce your backlog of application security debt. By using Copilot Autofix to generate contextual explanations and code suggestions for up to 1,000 historical code scanning alerts at a time, security campaigns help developers and security teams collaborate to fix vulnerabilities with speed and confidence.
Code scanning detection engines such as GitHub’s CodeQL are incredibly effective at automatically notifying developers about potential security vulnerabilities in their code in the form of code scanning alerts. Most developers fix these vulnerabilities with the help of Copilot Autofix when they’re flagged pull requests. However, in situations where these alerts aren’t remediated in a timely manner, security debt can build up and pose a serious risk to deployed applications. Using security campaigns, security teams and developers can easily collaborate to remediate and eradicate security debt at scale, with the help of Copilot Autofix.
A security campaign on GitHub can contain a large number of code scanning alerts, prioritized by your security team to be fixed within a chosen timeframe. When a campaign is created, Copilot Autofix automatically suggests fixes for all supported alerts, and developers who are most familiar with the code are notified. From there, they can review the fixes, open pull requests, and remediate the security debt.
Security teams can monitor the progress of the campaign and track the number of alerts that have been fixed. Using security campaigns, security and developer teams work together with Copilot Autofix to remove security debt in targeted efforts aimed at maximizing impact by focusing on the alerts that matter.
Security campaigns are available for users of GitHub Advanced Security on GitHub Enterprise Cloud. For more information about security campaigns, see About security campaigns in the GitHub documentation.
If you have any feedback on security campaigns: join the discussion in the GitHub Community.

In the latest versions of Visual Studio 2022, GitHub Copilot Completions now automatically considers semantically relevant C# files as additional context, even if those files are not open in your editor. This enhancement helps reduce hallucinations and provides more accurate, relevant suggestions.
GitHub Copilot provides autocomplete suggestions inline as you code. These suggestions are generated based on the content in your currently active file and any other open files in your editor. However, we’ve found that incorporating more relevant context leads to better suggestions.
To get started in Visual Studio 2022, ensure you’re using version 17.11 or later and have an active GitHub Copilot subscription. We hope this enhancement improves your experience with GitHub Copilot in Visual Studio. Our team is committed to improving Copilot support for C# developers in both Visual Studio and VS Code, with similar updates coming to VS Code soon.
