Admins can also customize defaults per enterprise team by setting the model key as overridable and updating team-mappings.json, letting teams pick their own preferred default while other users inherit the enterprise default. This is generally available with Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise across the GitHub Copilot app, Copilot CLI, and Visual Studio Code. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### How do I set a different default GitHub Copilot model for different enterprise teams? Set the model key as overridable in enterprise-managed settings, then update the team configuration in team-mappings.json so each enterprise team can choose its own preferred default model. Users outside those team mappings inherit the enterprise-wide default. This is generally available with Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise in the GitHub Copilot app, Copilot CLI, and Visual Studio Code. _Teams standardizing Copilot defaults across orgs track GitHub Copilot changes like this on daily.dev._ ### Can GitHub Copilot enterprise-managed settings use any AI model as the default now? Yes, enterprise-managed settings now support setting any preferred Copilot model as the default for new conversations, removing prior restrictions on which model could be the default. The feature is generally available with Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise across the GitHub Copilot app, Copilot CLI, and VS Code. _Admins choosing default AI models for their org follow updates like this via daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Enterprises can default to auto model selection](https://daily.dev/posts/enterprises-can-default-to-auto-model-selection-g1ydywsh6) · GitHub Changelog · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Enterprise team specialization for managed settings](https://daily.dev/posts/enterprise-team-specialization-for-managed-settings-zrrffisis) · GitHub Changelog · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Default model enablement for Copilot Business and Enterprise](https://daily.dev/posts/default-model-enablement-for-copilot-business-and-enterprise-d8ubbgswl) · GitHub Changelog · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Enterprise teams model policy targeting in public preview](https://daily.dev/posts/enterprise-teams-model-policy-targeting-in-public-preview-a5u0o0unq) · GitHub Changelog · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Enterprise managed settings in GitHub Copilot for JetBrains](https://daily.dev/posts/enterprise-managed-settings-in-github-copilot-for-jetbrains-h3nyd2ye9) · GitHub Changelog · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#github](https://daily.dev/tags/github), [#vscode](https://daily.dev/tags/vscode) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/enterprise-managed-settings-support-any-default-model-afpacdeid) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Enterprise-managed settings support any default model","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/enterprise-managed-settings-support-any-default-model-afpacdeid","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/enterprise-managed-settings-support-any-default-model-afpacdeid"},"datePublished":"2026-09-02T19:53:37.042Z","dateModified":"2026-09-03T00:05:35.064Z","description":"GitHub Copilot enterprise-managed settings now let admins set any preferred model as the default for new conversations, rather than being limited to a fixed...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/a242b14fea071959c2b8dc3aefa70b2e?_a=AQAEuop","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/a242b14fea071959c2b8dc3aefa70b2e?_a=AQAEuop","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"GitHub Changelog","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"GitHub Changelog","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/t_logo,f_auto/v1/logos/15004b7835da4d89b02b115871f0f6dc","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/github_updates"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/enterprise-managed-settings-support-any-default-model-afpacdeid","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":0},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"github,vscode","timeRequired":"PT1M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"GitHub Changelog","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/github_updates"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Enterprise-managed settings support any default model"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/enterprise-managed-settings-support-any-default-model-afpacdeid#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"How do I set a different default GitHub Copilot model for different enterprise teams?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Set the model key as overridable in enterprise-managed settings, then update the team configuration in team-mappings.json so each enterprise team can choose its own preferred default model.
