Managing requests for Copilot Business from organizations in your enterprise

Learn how to view and satisfy requests to access Copilot from organizations owned by your enterprise.

Who can use this feature?

Enterprise owners

Enterprise accounts with a subscription to GitHub Copilot Business.

Organization owners might not have the necessary permissions to satisfy requests from members. For example, if an organization owner is not an enterprise owner, and GitHub Copilot Business is not enabled for that organization, they will not have the permissions to approve requests for GitHub Copilot Business.

In these cases, when an organization member requests access to GitHub Copilot Business, the organization owner will be prompted to ask the enterprise owners to enable Copilot for the organization.

As an enterprise owner, you can view or dismiss these requests from your notifications page. You can approve the request by enabling Copilot for the organization.
