Allison introduces the new Copilot Spaces feature on GitHub, offering a streamlined migration path for existing Copilot knowledge bases, with improved security, organizational management, and support for collaborative development workflows.

Migrating Copilot Knowledge Bases to Copilot Spaces

With the upcoming sunset of Copilot knowledge bases on November 1, 2025, GitHub has launched Copilot Spaces, a new platform for managing and sharing organizational knowledge. Users can now easily migrate their legacy knowledge bases by selecting the Convert to Space button for each resource they wish to convert.

Security by Design

Each migrated knowledge base becomes an individual Copilot Space.
Only organization admins have initial access, allowing for testing and secure management.
Admins can promote Spaces to wider organizational access when ready, ensuring better control and compliance.

How Teams Use Copilot Spaces
