Companies want to provide great development experiences, such as GitHub Copilot, to their developers, to allow their developers to be more productive. But one of the main questions companies are trying to answer right now is how do we measure that productivity? How can we show that GitHub Copilot is providing value?

In this session, we will dive deep into that. We will examine what information you can get from the GitHub Copilot APIs, as well as what you should be measuring that isn't available from those APIs. We will also look at some potential reporting options, to give you more insight into your GitHub Copilot deployment.

You will learn:

  • Understand how to leverage GitHub Copilot APIs to gather and analyze GitHub Copilot data within your organization.
  • Which key productivity metrics to measure beyond what's available through GitHub Copilot APIs to assess the tool's value effectively.
  • Explore various reporting options and techniques to gain deeper insights into the impact of GitHub Copilot on your development teams.
