Question

You are the GitHub Enterprise admin for a company that just enabled GitHub Copilot Business across several organizations. Your compliance team needs to verify, through the enterprise audit log, whenever an administrator changes which repositories or file paths are excluded from Copilot (content exclusion settings). Which approach correctly surfaces these changes?

Accepted Answer

Filter the audit log for events in the `copilot` category, such as `copilot.cfb_content_exclusion_updated`, which are recorded when content exclusion configurations are modified.

Answer

Content exclusion changes are only visible in each developer's local IDE logs, so ask engineers to export and forward their Copilot extension logs.

Answer

Query the `repo` category audit events, since content exclusions are stored as branch protection rules on each affected repository.

Answer

Enable the Copilot metrics REST API and poll the `/copilot/usage` endpoint, which returns a diff of exclusion rule changes over time.
