GitHub Copilot coding agent shifts to subscription-based network routing with new API endpoints
Network Configuration Changes Now Live
GitHub has implemented subscription-based network routing for its Copilot coding agent. This change affects teams running Copilot on self-hosted runners or larger runners with Azure private networking.
Updated API Endpoints by Plan
Copilot now routes connections to different hosts based on the user's subscription plan:
- Copilot Business:
api.business.githubcopilot.com - Copilot Enterprise:
api.enterprise.githubcopilot.com - Copilot Pro and Pro+:
api.individual.githubcopilot.com
Action Items for Network Administrators
If your organization has configured network allowlists for Copilot coding agent, you should:
- Update firewall rules to allow the new subscription-specific endpoints listed above
- Remove the legacy endpoint
api.githubcopilot.comfrom your allowlist once all agents have transitioned - Test connectivity to ensure Copilot agents can reach the appropriate endpoint for their subscription tier
This change only affects teams using self-hosted or private runners. GitHub's managed runners will continue to function without manual network configuration updates.
