From 15cfc27793958406ee12b2946e6f3db4dae0576f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Samuel Tauil Date: Thu, 16 Apr 2026 10:00:32 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Clarify that content exclusion requires Copilot Business or Enterprise plan The how-to and concepts pages for content exclusion do not explicitly state that repository-level content exclusion settings are only available for repositories owned by an organization with a Copilot Business or Enterprise plan. Users with personal accounts (Copilot Free, Pro, or Pro+) cannot find the Copilot settings in their repository and have no clear explanation why. This adds: - A NOTE callout in the how-to page clarifying the plan and org ownership requirement for repository-level settings - An explicit plan requirement statement in the concepts page under 'Who can configure content exclusion' Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> --- content/copilot/concepts/context/content-exclusion.md | 2 ++ .../exclude-content-from-copilot.md | 3 +++ 2 files changed, 5 insertions(+) diff --git a/content/copilot/concepts/context/content-exclusion.md b/content/copilot/concepts/context/content-exclusion.md index f3f0fc1e95f6..d2859d6781f7 100644 --- a/content/copilot/concepts/context/content-exclusion.md +++ b/content/copilot/concepts/context/content-exclusion.md @@ -26,6 +26,8 @@ You can use content exclusion to configure {% data variables.product.prodname_co Repository administrators, organization owners, and enterprise owners can configure content exclusion. +Content exclusion requires a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_business_short %} or {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise_short %} plan.
