# Snippets API
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/6373) in GitLab 8.15.
Snippets API operates on [snippets](../user/snippets.md).
## Snippet visibility level
Snippets in GitLab can be either private, internal, or public.
You can set it with the `visibility` field in the snippet.
Valid values for snippet visibility levels are:
| Visibility | Description |
|:-----------|:----------------------------------------------------|
| `private` | Snippet is visible only to the snippet creator. |
| `internal` | Snippet is visible for any logged in user. |
| `public` | Snippet can be accessed without any authentication. |
## List all snippets for a user
Get a list of the current user's snippets.
