GitHub Copilot - User Guide

In this article, you will understand step by step how to integrate Scytale with GitHub Copilot

GitHub Copilot is GitHub's AI coding assistant, used inside IDEs, on GitHub, and from the CLI. Scytale reads the Copilot seats assigned to your organization's members to support user access reviews.

Required Permissions

  • read: organization/github copilot business

  • read: repository/metadata

Scytale follows the least-privilege principle, limiting permission scopes strictly to what's required for reliable audit evidence collection.

How to Connect

  1. In Scytale, go to 'Integrations'.

  2. Search for GitHub Copilot and select 'Connect'.

  3. You will be redirected to GitHub to install the Scytale GitHub Copilot app.

    Note: You must have the owner role on your GitHub organization in order to install the app.

  4. Select the organization you want to monitor and approve the requested permissions.

  5. Add a connection name — this will be used to differentiate between your connections — and then select 'Connect'.

You have now successfully connected to GitHub Copilot.
