OpenTelemetry support in GitHub Copilot app

GitHub Copilot app now supports OpenTelemetry configuration through enterprise-managed settings, enabling visibility into how Copilot agents perform and interact with models and tools.

Understand how Copilot agents perform and interact with models and tools. The GitHub Copilot app now supports OpenTelemetry (OTel) configuration through enterprise-managed settings.
OTel is an open source observability framework. Administrators can use it to send agent activity data to their organization’s compatible monitoring tools. This helps teams:

  • Analyze agent sessions: Follow the flow of a session, including requests to AI models and the tools an agent uses.
  • Investigate unexpected behavior: Review step-by-step traces of agent execution in their existing monitoring tools.
  • Manage monitoring centrally: Apply telemetry settings across teams instead of requiring each developer to individually configure them.

Get started

Configure the telemetry property in your enterprise’s managed-settings.json file to enable export and specify the endpoint that will receive the data. Prompt and response content is excluded by default—review your content-capture settings before enabling it.
