# Project snippets
### Snippet visibility level
Snippets in GitLab can be either private, internal or public.
You can set it with the `visibility_level` field in the snippet.
Constants for snippet visibility levels are:
| Visibility | visibility_level | Description |
| ---------- | ---------------- | ----------- |
| Private | `0` | The snippet is visible only the snippet creator |
| Internal | `10` | The snippet is visible for any logged in user |
| Public | `20` | The snippet can be accessed without any authentication |
