# Enterprise Teams is now generally available

Enterprise Teams is now generally available on GitHub Enterprise Cloud. [First announced in public preview last September](https://github.blog/changelog/2025-09-04-manage-copilot-and-users-via-enterprise-teams-in-public-preview/), enterprise teams let enterprise admins define a group of users once at the enterprise account and assign that group to roles across every organization in the enterprise. There’s no longer a need to recreate or reconcile the same team in each org.

[What this unlocks](#what-this-unlocks)

- Route pull request reviews to the same SRE or security team across 50+ orgs without maintaining 50 copies of the team.
- Grant break-glass ruleset bypass to a platform team once, and have it applied to every repository they touch.
- Let your identity provider drive enterprise team membership end-to-end, with changes automatically flowing through to org-level permissions.
- Automate team lifecycle via GitHub Apps without relying on a single admin’s PAT.

[What’s new since public preview](#whats-new-since-public-preview)

You can now:

- Scale to production limits, up to 2,500 teams per enterprise and 5,000 members per team. This is validated across your enterprise’s organizations.
- @mention enterprise teams in pull requests, issues, or discussions, and members get notified just like with organization teams.
- Request enterprise teams as pull request reviewers across every org they’re assigned to.
- Select enterprise teams as bypass actors when you configure repository rulesets.
- Drive enterprise team membership from your identity provider (e.g., Entra ID, Okta) via SCIM for Enterprise Managed Users.
- Discover enterprise and organization teams from a unified API view, so automation tools no longer have to query separate endpoints to assemble a full team picture.
- Manage enterprise teams programmatically with GitHub Apps and fine-grained personal access tokens using the new enterprise teams permission.
- Audit every change. Team CRUD actions, membership changes, role assignments, and ruleset bypass events are all captured in your enterprise audit log.
