You can create an enterprise account specifically for managing Copilot Business licenses, without adopting GitHub Enterprise. With this account, you will have access to enterprise-grade integrations with identity providers for authentication and provisioning, without needing to pay for GitHub Enterprise licenses. See About enterprise accounts for Copilot Business.
1. Create an enterprise account
Importante
If you're purchasing Copilot Business through GitHub's sales team, your enterprise account will be created for you. Skip to step 2.
You need to create an enterprise account, and the way to do that is to start a trial of GitHub Enterprise Cloud.
Set up a trial of GitHub Enterprise Cloud
Don’t create any organizations during setup. Adding users to organizations assigns them GitHub Enterprise licenses, while adding users directly to the enterprise keeps your setup limited to Copilot Business.
2. Add users to your enterprise
Once you have an enterprise account, add the people who will receive Copilot Business licenses. How you add users depends on your enterprise type.
Enterprise with personal accounts
Invite users directly to your enterprise. For detailed steps, see Convidar usuários diretamente para sua empresa.
Enterprise with managed users
If your enterprise uses Enterprise Managed Users, you must provision user accounts from your identity provider (IdP) through SCIM. For setup and provisioning guidance, see Introdução aos Enterprise Managed Users.
Provisioned users will appear automatically in your enterprise’s People list. Later, you'll assign Copilot Business licenses directly to these users or to enterprise teams synced with your IdP.
3. Create teams (optional)
You can group users to scale license assignment by creating and managing enterprise teams. If you plan to manage access in groups, create those groups now. See Como criar equipes corporativas.
4. Enable Copilot for the enterprise
Antes de atribuir licenças, um proprietário da empresa deve habilitar Copilot para a empresa e selecionar políticas para determinados recursos.
- No canto superior direito do GitHub, selecione sua imagem de perfil.
- Dependendo do ambiente, selecione Sua empresa ou Suas empresas e escolha a empresa que deseja ver.
- Na parte superior da página, clique em Policies.{ % else %}No lado esquerdo da página, na barra lateral da conta empresarial, clique em Policies. 1. Na seção "Policies", clique em Copilot.
- Em "Políticas do GitHub Copilot", clique em Permitido e em Salvar.
- Revise as políticas quanto a sugestões que correspondam ao código público e ao Copilot Chat e atualize os menus suspensos para habilitar ou desabilitar os recursos conforme necessário.
5. Assign Copilot licenses
Next, give people access to Copilot by assigning Copilot Business licenses to users or enterprise teams directly from the enterprise level.
For detailed steps, see Como conceder aos usuários acesso ao GitHub Copilot em sua empresa.
6. Convert your trial to a paid enterprise account
To continue using Copilot Business after your trial, convert your trial to a paid enterprise account. See Configurar uma versão de avaliação do GitHub Enterprise Cloud.
Next steps
After setting up Copilot Business for your enterprise, you can help your developers start using Copilot and measure its impact across your organization. See Promovendo a adoção do GitHub Copilot em sua empresa.
If you ever want to access the full range of GitHub features in the future, you can create organizations and add users to them.
