## Summary

GitHub Copilot supports server-to-server authentication for GitHub Apps installed on organizations, now in public preview. Services built with the Copilot SDK can make requests using a short-lived installation access token instead of a signed-in user's credentials, with usage billed to the owning organization under its model policies and budgets.
