The access levels are defined in the ProtectedRefAccess.allowed_access_levels method. Currently, these levels are recognized:

0  => No access
30 => Developer access
40 => Maintainer access
60 => Admin access

Gets a list of protected branches from a project.

GET /projects/:id/protected_branches
Attribute Type Required Description
id integer/string yes The ID or URL-encoded path of the project owned by the authenticated user
search string no Name or part of the name of protected branches to be searched for
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/protected_branches"

Example response:

[
  {
    "id": 1,
    "name": "master",
    "push_access_levels": [
      {
        "access_level": 40,

Example with user / group level access (PREMIUM)

Elements in the allowed_to_push / allowed_to_merge / allowed_to_unprotect array should take the form {user_id: integer}, {group_id: integer} or {access_level: integer}. Each user must have access to the project and each group must have this project shared. These access levels allow more granular control over protected branch access and were added to the API in GitLab 10.3 EE.
