# Features flags API
All methods require administrator authorization.
Notice that currently the API only supports boolean and percentage-of-time gate
values.
## List all features
Get a list of all persisted features, with its gate values.
```
GET /features
```
```bash
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/features
```
Example response:
```json
[
{
"name": "experimental_feature",
"state": "off",
"gates": [
{
"key": "boolean",
"value": false
}
]
},
{
"name": "new_library",
"state": "on",
"gates": [
{
"key": "boolean",
"value": true
}
]
}
]
```
## Set or create a feature
Set a feature's gate value. If a feature with the given name doesn't exist yet
it will be created. The value can be a boolean, or an integer to indicate
percentage of time.
```
POST /features/:name
```
