Organizations can now mandate where GitHub Copilot sends OpenTelemetry (OTel) data, so telemetry flows to an approved collector without each developer setting OTEL_* environment variables. The configuration is delivered through the telemetry block in enterprise-managed settings and applies to both the Copilot Chat extension in VS Code and the agent host process that powers Copilot CLI.
Administrators can control:
The OTLP export endpoint and transport protocol (otlp-http or otlp-grpc).
The OTel service name and resource attributes.
Exporter headers, such as an authentication token for the collector.
