# GitHub Copilot app usage metrics now expand across report rollups

**[GitHub Changelog](https://daily.dev/sources/github_updates)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

GitHub Copilot's usage metrics API now includes expanded reporting for the Copilot app across enterprise and organization reports. Individual user activity is now attributed in enterprise-user and organization-user reports, with new fields like `used_copilot_app`, `totals_by_copilot_app` (covering session count, request count, prompt count, and token usage), and Copilot app activity broken out in feature, model, and language rollups. Code generation and lines-of-code metrics now include Copilot app activity, and daily active users counts now include Copilot app-only users. Changes are backward compatible and available to enterprise owners, billing managers, and organization owners with the appropriate permissions.

## Questions this post answers

### What new fields does the GitHub Copilot usage metrics API report for the Copilot app now?

The API now reports used_copilot_app (whether a user was active in the Copilot app on a given day) and a per-user totals_by_copilot_app section with session_count, request_count, prompt_count, and a token_usage breakdown of output_tokens_sum, prompt_tokens_sum, and avg_tokens_per_request. Copilot app activity also appears under a copilot_app feature value in feature, model, and language rollups, and in top-level code generation, acceptance, and lines-of-code totals.

_Enterprises tuning Copilot adoption tracking can follow API changes like these on daily.dev._

### Is the new Copilot app usage metrics data backward compatible with existing API consumers?

Yes, the changes are backward compatible. Users and entities with no Copilot app activity simply omit the totals_by_copilot_app field and produce no copilot_app breakdown entries, while existing fields retain their current shape, so existing integrations continue to work unchanged.

_Teams maintaining integrations against evolving APIs track compatibility notes like this on daily.dev._

### Which GitHub Copilot usage metrics reports include the copilot_app feature breakdown?

The used_copilot_app field and user-level totals_by_copilot_app section are available in the enterprise-user and organization-user reports for both 1-day and 28-day windows. The copilot_app feature value plus code activity, lines-of-code, and daily_active_users changes apply to enterprise, organization, and user reports across both time windows, requiring the View Copilot Metrics permission and an enabled usage metrics policy.

_Admins comparing Copilot surfaces like IDE, chat, and app usage can keep up via daily.dev._
