{% data reusables.copilot.enterprise-licensing %}

Assigning licenses to users or teams

[!NOTE] {% data reusables.copilot.direct-assignment-rollout %}

You can assign {% data variables.copilot.copilot_business_short %} licenses directly to users or enterprise teams.

When you assign licenses to an enterprise team, users receive or lose access to {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} when they are added or removed from the team. If you use {% data variables.product.prodname_emus %}, you can sync the team with an identity provider (IdP) group and manage licensing from your IdP.

Prerequisites

  • Set the Policies for enterprise-assigned users policy to define a default setting for these users when other enterprise policies are set to "No policy". See AUTOTITLE.
  • If you want to assign licenses to users who are not already in your enterprise, you must first invite the users (personal accounts) or provision them from your identity provider ({% data variables.product.prodname_emus %}). For personal accounts, see AUTOTITLE.
  • If you want to assign a license to an enterprise team, you must create the team first. See AUTOTITLE.

Assigning licenses

{% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.access-enterprise %} {% data reusables.billing.enterprise-billing-menu %}

  1. In the left sidebar, click Licensing.

  2. Next to "Copilot", click Manage.

  5. Search for users or teams, then click Add licenses.

Enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} for organizations

If your enterprise has a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise_short %} plan, you can assign licenses for either {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise_short %} or {% data variables.copilot.copilot_business_short %}.

{% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.copilot-access-management-tmp %}

  1. Find the organization access dropdown menu and choose whether to enable {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} for all organizations or allow for specific organizations.

    Screenshot of the the "Organization access" section, with the dropdown menu highlighted.

  2. If you selected Allow for specific organizations:

    1. If you don't already see a list of organizations, click the {% octicon "organization" aria-hidden="true" aria-label="organization" %} Organizations tab.
    2. Locate the organization for which you want to enable {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %}.
    3. To the right of the organization name, select the {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} dropdown menu.
      • If your enterprise has a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_business_short %} plan, click Enabled.
      • If your enterprise has a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise_short %} plan, click either Copilot: Enterprise or Copilot: Business to assign a specific Copilot plan to the organization.

Next steps

After you've enabled {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} for an organization in your enterprise, owners of the organization can grant access to some or all members of the organization. See AUTOTITLE.
