Overview

Previously, when a member used all the Copilot AI credits available to them, they were blocked from Copilot features that consume credits. This release adds a flow for them to request more budget the moment they hit the limit. You can approve, adjust, or deny that request without leaving your settings.

Requests automatically route to whichever account pays for the budget. Requests against an organization-owned budget appear in your organization’s settings, and requests against an enterprise-owned budget appear in your enterprise’s settings.

As an organization owner, enterprise owner, or billing manager, you can review pending requests under “Requests from members”, set a new amount for each one, and select Approve and increase. Approving a request updates the member’s budget to the amount you set and immediately restores their access to AI credits.

Details

This feature is available with the GitHub Copilot Business and GitHub Copilot Enterprise plans under usage-based billing.
