# Permissions and roles
2016-08-24 12:49:21 +05:30
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
Users have different abilities depending on the role they have in a
2020-01-01 13:55:28 +05:30
particular group or project. If a user is both in a project's group and the
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
project itself, the highest role is used.
2016-08-24 12:49:21 +05:30
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
On [public and internal projects ](../api/projects.md#project-visibility-level ), the Guest role
(not to be confused with [Guest user ](#free-guest-users )) is not enforced.
2020-04-08 14:13:33 +05:30
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
When a member leaves a team's project, all the assigned [issues ](project/issues/index.md ) and
[merge requests ](project/merge_requests/index.md ) are automatically unassigned.
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
2019-07-07 11:18:12 +05:30
GitLab [administrators ](../administration/index.md ) receive all permissions.
2016-08-24 12:49:21 +05:30
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
To add or import a user, you can follow the
2019-09-04 21:01:54 +05:30
[project members documentation ](project/members/index.md ).
2018-10-15 14:42:47 +05:30
## Principles behind permissions
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
See our [product handbook on permissions ](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/gitlab-the-product/#permissions-in-gitlab ).
2018-10-15 14:42:47 +05:30
2019-07-07 11:18:12 +05:30
## Instance-wide user permissions
By default, users can create top-level groups and change their
usernames. A GitLab administrator can configure the GitLab instance to
[modify this behavior ](../administration/user_settings.md ).
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
## Project members permissions
2016-08-24 12:49:21 +05:30
2021-12-11 22:18:48 +05:30
A user's role determines what permissions they have on a project. The Owner role provides all permissions but is
available only:
- For group owners. The role is inherited for a group's projects.
- For Administrators.
Personal namespace owners have the same permissions as an Owner, but are displayed with the Maintainer role on projects created in their personal namespace.
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
For more information, see [projects members documentation ](project/members/index.md ).
2019-12-04 20:38:33 +05:30
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
The following table lists project permissions available for each role:
2016-08-24 12:49:21 +05:30
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
<!-- Keep this table sorted: By topic first, then by minimum role, then alphabetically. -->

1. Groups can be set to [allow either Owners or Owners and
2019-10-12 21:52:04 +05:30
Maintainers to create subgroups](group/subgroups/index.md#creating-a-subgroup)
2020-04-08 14:13:33 +05:30
1. Introduced in GitLab 12.2.
1. Default project creation role can be changed at:
2021-10-27 15:23:28 +05:30
- The [instance level ](admin_area/settings/visibility_and_access_controls.md#define-which-roles-can-create-projects ).
2021-04-17 20:07:23 +05:30
- The [group level ](group/index.md#specify-who-can-add-projects-to-a-group ).
2020-06-23 00:09:42 +05:30
1. Does not apply to subgroups.
2021-04-17 20:07:23 +05:30
1. Developers can push commits to the default branch of a new project only if the [default branch protection ](group/index.md#change-the-default-branch-protection-of-a-group ) is set to "Partially protected" or "Not protected".
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
1. In addition, if your group is public or internal, all users who can see the group can also see group wiki pages.
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
1. Users can only view events based on their individual actions.
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
### Subgroup permissions
When you add a member to a subgroup, they inherit the membership and
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
permission level from the parent group(s). This model allows access to
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
nested groups if you have membership in one of its parents.
2016-08-24 12:49:21 +05:30
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
To learn more, read through the documentation on
[subgroups memberships ](group/subgroups/index.md#membership ).
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
## External users **(FREE SELF)**
2016-08-24 12:49:21 +05:30
In cases where it is desired that a user has access only to some internal or
private projects, there is the option of creating **External Users** . This
feature may be useful when for example a contractor is working on a given
project and should only have access to that project.
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
External users:
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
- Can only create projects (including forks), subgroups, and snippets within the top-level group to which they belong.
2020-06-23 00:09:42 +05:30
- Can only access public projects and projects to which they are explicitly granted access,
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
thus hiding all other internal or private ones from them (like being
logged out).
2021-01-29 00:20:46 +05:30
- Can only access public groups and groups to which they are explicitly granted access,
thus hiding all other internal or private ones from them (like being
logged out).
- Can only access public snippets.
2016-08-24 12:49:21 +05:30
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
Access can be granted by adding the user as member to the project or group.
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
Like usual users, they receive a role in the project or group with all
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
the abilities that are mentioned in the [permissions table above ](#project-members-permissions ).
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
For example, if an external user is added as Guest, and your project is internal or
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
private, they do not have access to the code; you need to grant the external
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
user access at the Reporter level or above if you want them to have access to the code. You should
always take into account the
[project's visibility and permissions settings ](project/settings/index.md#sharing-and-permissions )
as well as the permission level of the user.
2018-12-13 13:39:08 +05:30
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
NOTE:
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
External users still count towards a license seat.
An administrator can flag a user as external by either of the following methods:
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
- [Through the API ](../api/users.md#user-modification ).
- Using the GitLab UI:
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Admin** .
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
1. On the left sidebar, select **Overview > Users** to create a new user or edit an existing one.
There, you can find the option to flag the user as external.
2016-08-24 12:49:21 +05:30
2021-12-11 22:18:48 +05:30
Additionally users can be set as external users using:
- [SAML groups ](../integration/saml.md#external-groups ).
- [LDAP groups ](../administration/auth/ldap/ldap_synchronization.md#external-groups ).
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
### Setting new users to external
2016-08-24 12:49:21 +05:30
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
By default, new users are not set as external users. This behavior can be changed
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
by an administrator:
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Admin** .
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
1. On the left sidebar, select **Settings > General** .
1. Expand the **Account and limit** section.
2018-11-20 20:47:30 +05:30
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
If you change the default behavior of creating new users as external, you
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
have the option to narrow it down by defining a set of internal users.
The **Internal users** field allows specifying an email address regex pattern to
identify default internal users. New users whose email address matches the regex
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
pattern are set to internal by default rather than an external collaborator.
2018-11-20 20:47:30 +05:30
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
The regex pattern format is in Ruby, but it needs to be convertible to JavaScript,
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
and the ignore case flag is set (`/regex pattern/i`). Here are some examples:
2018-11-20 20:47:30 +05:30
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
- Use `\.internal@domain\.com$` to mark email addresses ending with
`.internal@domain.com` as internal.
- Use `^(?:(?!\.ext@domain\.com).)*$\r?` to mark users with email addresses
NOT including `.ext@domain.com` as internal.
2018-11-20 20:47:30 +05:30
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
WARNING:
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
Be aware that this regex could lead to a
[regular expression denial of service (ReDoS) attack ](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ReDoS ).
2018-11-20 20:47:30 +05:30
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
## Free Guest users **(ULTIMATE)**
2018-11-20 20:47:30 +05:30
2021-12-11 22:18:48 +05:30
When a user is given the Guest role on a project, group, or both, and holds no
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
higher permission level on any other project or group on the GitLab instance,
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
the user is considered a guest user by GitLab and does not consume a license seat.
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
There is no other specific "guest" designation for newly created users.
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
If the user is assigned a higher role on any projects or groups, the user
takes a license seat. If a user creates a project, the user becomes a Maintainer
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
on the project, resulting in the use of a license seat. Also, note that if your
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
project is internal or private, Guest users have all the abilities that are
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
mentioned in the [permissions table above ](#project-members-permissions ) (they
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
are unable to browse the project's repository, for example).
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
NOTE:
2021-11-18 22:05:49 +05:30
To prevent a guest user from creating projects, as an administrator, you can edit the
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
user's profile to mark the user as [external ](#external-users ).

Beware though that even if a user is external, if they already have Reporter or
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
higher permissions in any project or group, they are **not** counted as a
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
free guest user.

## Users with minimal access **(PREMIUM)**
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
2021-11-18 22:05:49 +05:30
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/40942) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 13.4.
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
2021-06-08 01:23:25 +05:30
Owners can add members with a "minimal access" role to a parent group. Such users don't
automatically have access to projects and subgroups underneath. To support such access, owners must explicitly add these "minimal access" users to the specific subgroups/projects.
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
Users with minimal access can list the group in the UI and through the API. However, they cannot see
details such as projects or subgroups. They do not have access to the group's page or list any of its subgroups or projects.
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
### Minimal access users take license seats
Users with even a "minimal access" role are counted against your number of license seats. This
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
requirement does not apply for [GitLab Ultimate ](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/ )
subscriptions.
