Automated excerpt
Enterprise administrators can now require supported GitHub Copilot clients to retrieve current server-managed settings at startup instead of relying on a cached policy. We are also adding minimum client version requirements to governance-focused managed settings keys over time, starting with the sandbox key. Set forceRemoteSettingsRefresh to true through server-managed, MDM-managed, or file-based settings when a policy change must take effect before Copilot starts.
