Codespaces will be undergoing maintenance in all regions starting from 17:00 UTC on Wednesday, April 2 to 17:00 UTC on Thursday, April 3. Maintenance will begin in Southeast Asia, Central India, Australia Central, and Australia East regions. Once it is complete, maintenance will start in UK South and West Europe, followed by East US, East US2, West US2, and West US3.

How do I right-size enablement for my enterprise?

Customers transitioning before May 2025 can work with their account teams on right-sizing enablement for their enterprise across both Secret Protection and Code Security. All repositories will have both Secret Protection and Code Security enabled at the time of transition, regardless of your contractual plan.

When will the standalone plans be available for Enterprise Server?

Standalone SKUs will be available for Enterprise Server customers starting with GHES 3.17. To use metered billing, GitHub Connect is required.
