Network Routing Changes Now Live
GitHub has finalized network configuration changes for Copilot coding agent that took effect on February 27, 2026. This update affects teams running the agent on self-hosted runners or larger runners with Azure private networking and introduces subscription-based network routing.
New Subscription-Specific Endpoints
Instead of routing all traffic to a single api.githubcopilot.com endpoint, Copilot now connects to different hosts based on the plan of the user initiating the agent task:
- Copilot Business:
api.business.githubcopilot.com - Copilot Enterprise:
api.enterprise.githubcopilot.com - Copilot Pro and Pro+:
api.individual.githubcopilot.com
Action Required
If your network allowlist is still configured to permit connections to api.githubcopilot.com for Copilot coding agent, you can now remove this host from your configuration. Organizations should ensure their firewall rules are updated to allow traffic to the appropriate subscription-tier endpoints for their user base.
This change enables GitHub to route traffic more efficiently based on subscription level and provides better security isolation between different plan tiers.
