Copilot Code Review for organizational users without a license

Copilot Code Review for organizational users without a license 🎉

Organizations can now enable GitHub Copilot code review (CCR) for all members, even those without a Copilot license! This provides greater flexibility to run CCR on every pull request (PR), from any contributor, and ensures complete coverage of PR reviews. Your organization will be directly billed for the premium request usage from non-licensed users. Licensed users will continue to consume premium requests from their existing monthly allowance, and there are no changes to the rate of premium requests charged for GitHub Copilot code review.

This feature is available to all GitHub customers with a Copilot Business or Copilot Enterprise plan.

Get Started

To enable it for your organization, admins must opt-in to the new Copilot code review policy.

• Admins must enable the premium requests paid usage policy for the organization to allow billing for premium requests.
• Admins must enable the Copilot code review policy for the organization before turning on the sub-policy "Allow members without a Copilot license to use Copilot code review in github.com".
• Your organization’s charges for premium requests will appear in the premium requests analytics dashboard and usage reports under Billing settings. Admins can also set up budgets to monitor and control spending on metered products.

For more detailed information, please refer to the Copilot code review documentation.

We can't turn this setting on, even though we have Copilot Business on our organization. We do have licenses for "specific users", if that is the cause it should be clearer in the documentation.

@eshwer - we were on an Enterprise trial recently, but it was cancelled a few days ago. Is it possible that some old Enterprise settings are still active and interfering with our Organization's Paid Usage settings?

[eshwer]

We are looking into it! This is helpful context 👀

@Inscure @fullyherge please try again! We merged a bug fix that hopefully addresses this!

[Inscure]

@eshwer now it works, thank you very much!

[fullyherge]

No worries @Inscure, I posted with little hope, so I'm just glad the thread got some action!
Thanks for the help @eshwer ❤️

Great feature but the dependecy to enable "Premium request paid usage" for everyone is a bit too much.

Could we somehow "Allow members without a Copilot license to use Copilot code review in github.com" but at the same time not enable "premium requests paid usage policy"?
