# Azure Boards integration with GitHub Copilot

**[DevBlogs](https://daily.dev/sources/devblogs)** · 4 min read · 22 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Azure Boards now integrates with GitHub Copilot in general availability, allowing teams to send work items directly to Copilot's coding agent. The agent reads work item descriptions and comments, generates code changes, creates a branch and draft pull request, and links everything back for traceability. New features include branch selection and Copilot status visibility on Kanban cards. Requirements include GitHub-hosted repos, Azure Boards-GitHub integration, and enabled Copilot coding agent. Future enhancements will support custom agents, model selection, and REST API automation.
