FAQ
- How do I get a GitHub Copilot license?
- You can request a trial license from your GitHub Sales representative or via Copilot for Individuals or Business licenses.
- How do I get a GitHub Codespaces license?
- Codespaces is included with GitHub Enterprise Cloud, GitHub Enterprise Server, and GitHub Free. You can check under your billing settings page.
- I am having trouble activating GitHub Copilot after I load the plugin, what should I do?
- This could be because you launched your Codespace before you activated GitHub Copilot or accepted the invitation to the trial org. Please try to reload your Codespace and try again.
