If you or your organization employs security measures like a firewall or proxy server, it may be beneficial to include certain domain URLs in an "allowlist" and open specific ports and protocols. Doing so will enhance your installation and usage of GitHub Copilot for an optimal experience.

URLs to add to an allowlist

Due to GitHub Copilot's interaction with a remote machine learning model and its update checking functionality, it is recommended to include the following domain URLs in the allowlist, marking them as trusted either in the user interface or within your deployment scripts.

Domain and/or URL	Purpose
https://github.com/login/*	Authentication
https://api.github.com/user	User Management
https://api.github.com/copilot_internal/*	User Management
https://copilot-telemetry.githubusercontent.com/telemetry	Telemetry
https://default.exp-tas.com/	Telemetry
https://copilot-proxy.githubusercontent.com/	API service for Copilot suggestions
https://origin-tracker.githubusercontent.com	API service for Copilot suggestions

Additional domains and URLs may require allowlisting, depending on your organization's security policies and the editors in use. For more information about specific editors, see Further reading.
