Copilot Cloud Agent Usage Metrics v2026-04

TL;DR

• Three new aggregated active user count fields for Copilot cloud agent in usage metrics API
• Daily, weekly, and monthly active user counts now available at enterprise and organization levels
• Naming convention updated: "Copilot coding agent" → "Copilot cloud agent" across all fields

New

• daily_active_copilot_cloud_agent_users — Count of unique users who used Copilot cloud agent on a specific day, available in 1-day and 28-day reports.
• weekly_active_copilot_cloud_agent_users — Count of unique users active in the trailing 7-day window, helping you spot adoption trends without manual aggregation.
• monthly_active_copilot_cloud_agent_users — Count of unique users active in the trailing 28-day window, complementing existing IDE agent and user-level metrics.

Changed

• Field naming convention — All existing coding agent fields will be updated to use "cloud agent" terminology in the coming weeks; new fields already reflect this change.

All three new fields are nullable and return either a count (including zero) or null when no data exists for that period. These metrics sit alongside existing monthly_active_agent_users (IDE agent mode) to give you complete visibility into Copilot adoption across surfaces.

See the Copilot usage metrics API documentation for integration details.
