If you are on a free, pro, or team plan, you can only use {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} on repositories that are publicly available. To enable {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} for private or internal repositories, you must upgrade to GitHub Enterprise with {% data variables.product.prodname_GH_advanced_security %} and enable {% data variables.product.prodname_GH_advanced_security %} for the repository. For more information, see [AUTOTITLE](/get-started/learning-about-github/githubs-products#github-enterprise) and [AUTOTITLE](/get-started/learning-about-github/about-github-advanced-security).
