GitHub lets enterprises pin Copilot's OpenTelemetry endpoint

Short summary

GitHub now lets enterprises centrally mandate where Copilot Chat and Copilot CLI send OpenTelemetry data via enterprise-managed settings, overriding individual developer environment variables. Four things are configurable: OTLP endpoint/transport, service name/attributes, exporter headers, and content capture toggles. A key scoping caveat: managed exporter headers apply only to the Chat extension, not the CLI agent host.

• •Enterprises can pin Copilot's OTLP endpoint via managed settings, overriding per-developer env vars
• •Four configurable fields: endpoint/transport, service name, headers, content capture flags
• •Auth-token header scope is Chat-only; CLI agent host gets endpoint policy but not the token flow
