# Protected branches API **(FREE)**
|
|
|
|
## Valid access levels
|
|
|
|
The access levels are defined in the `ProtectedRefAccess.allowed_access_levels` method. Currently, these levels are recognized:
|
|
|
|
```plaintext
|
|
0 => No access
|
|
30 => Developer access
|
|
40 => Maintainer access
|
|
60 => Admin access
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## List protected branches

|
|
> Deploy key information [introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/116846) in GitLab 16.0.
|
|
|
|
Gets a list of protected branches from a project as they are defined [in the UI](../user/project/protected_branches.md#configure-a-protected-branch). If a wildcard is set, it is returned instead of the exact name of the branches that match that wildcard.

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](../user/project/members/share_project_with_groups.md). These access levels allow [more granular control over protected branch access](../user/project/protected_branches.md).
