# Protected branches API **(FREE)**
2017-08-02 06:16:17 -04:00
**Valid access levels**
The access levels are defined in the `ProtectedRefAccess.allowed_access_levels` method. Currently, these levels are recognized:
```plaintext
2017-08-02 06:16:17 -04:00
0 => No access
30 => Developer access
2018-05-22 06:16:06 -04:00
40 => Maintainer access
60 => Admin access
2017-08-02 06:16:17 -04:00
```
## List protected branches
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.

### 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](../user/project/members/share_project_with_groups.md). These access levels allow [more granular control over protected branch access](../user/project/protected_branches.md).
```shell
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/protected_branches?name=*-stable&allowed_to_push%5B%5D%5Buser_id%5D=1"
```
Example response:
```json
{
"id": 1,
"name": "*-stable",
"push_access_levels": [
{
"access_level": null,
"user_id": 1,
"group_id": null,
"access_level_description": "Administrator"
}
],
"merge_access_levels": [
{
"access_level": 40,
"user_id": null,
"group_id": null,
"access_level_description": "Maintainers"
}
],
"unprotect_access_levels": [
{
"access_level": 40,
"user_id": null,
"group_id": null,
"access_level_description": "Maintainers"
2017-08-02 06:16:17 -04:00
}
],
"allow_force_push":false,
"code_owner_approval_required": false
2017-08-02 06:16:17 -04:00
