Enhanced Metrics Coverage

GitHub has expanded the organization-level Copilot Usage Metrics API to include comprehensive pull request activity metrics that were previously available only at the enterprise level. This update brings feature parity for org-level endpoints and enables teams to standardize reporting across organizational boundaries.

What's Now Available

Organizations can now retrieve daily aggregated data including:

Baseline PR Metrics:

  • Total pull requests created, reviewed, and merged
  • Median time to merge (in minutes)

Copilot Participation Metrics:

  • Pull requests created by Copilot coding agent
  • Pull requests reviewed by Copilot code review
  • Review suggestion volumes and applied suggestions
  • Copilot-created PRs that were merged
  • Median time to merge for Copilot-authored pull requests

Key Benefits

With these new metrics, teams can:

  • Standardize reporting across the organization level
  • Quantify Copilot's impact on the entire pull request lifecycle, from creation through merge
  • Measure suggestion quality by tracking not just volumes but applied suggestions as a signal of actionable feedback
  • Gain visibility into non-IDE Copilot usage, including agent-authored PRs and code review activity

Important Implementation Notes

Organizations should be aware that organization-level totals may differ from enterprise-level totals due to user deduplication differences. Additionally, repository or organization transfers can split attribution—events may be attributed to different organizations depending on when the transfer occurred relative to PR creation, review, and merge. For organizations transferred to new enterprises, attribution remains at the org level while events may split at the enterprise level.
