# Project snippets **(FREE)**
## Snippet visibility level
Snippets in GitLab can be either private, internal or public.
You can set it with the `visibility` field in the snippet.
Constants for snippet visibility levels are:
| visibility | Description |
| ---------- | ----------- |
| `private` | The snippet is visible only to project members |
| `internal` | The snippet is visible for any logged in user except [external users](../user/permissions.md#external-users) |
| `public` | The snippet can be accessed without any authentication |
NOTE:
From July 2019, the `Internal` visibility setting is disabled for new projects, groups,
and snippets on GitLab.com. Existing projects, groups, and snippets using the `Internal`
visibility setting keep this setting. You can read more about the change in the
[relevant issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/12388).
