Copilot Usage Metrics Server-Side Telemetry: What It Does, Pricing, Use Cases, and Alternatives

Full Guide

Copilot Usage Metrics Server-Side Telemetry is a GitHub product update announced on 2026-06-15. GitHub added server-side telemetry to Copilot usage metrics so enterprise reports include active users missed by client-only signals.

What it does

The update adds server-confirmed users to enterprise single-day and 28-day reports. Those users count toward active-user totals, while detailed IDE, feature, model, and code-activity dimensions remain empty until richer telemetry is available.

Availability and pricing

The reporting change is available through Copilot usage metrics for eligible enterprise and organization administrators. Access and billing follow the applicable GitHub Copilot plan; the announcement does not introduce a separate price for server-side telemetry.

Who it is for

Enterprise administrators, engineering analytics teams, and platform leaders using Copilot usage reports to measure adoption and reconcile activity with billing.

What teams should review

Server-only users initially lack detailed feature and IDE dimensions, so organizations should document the reporting change before comparing new totals with historical dashboards.
