-# GitLab functionality may be limited by feature flags
+# All feature flags in GitLab
> Feature flag documentation warnings were [introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/227806) in GitLab 13.4.
-GitLab releases some features in a disabled state using [feature flags](../development/feature_flags/index.md),
-allowing them to be tested by specific groups of users and strategically
-rolled out until they become enabled for everyone.
+The following feature flags exist in GitLab. These flags determine the availability of each feature.
-As a GitLab user, this means that some features included in a GitLab release
-may be unavailable to you.
-
-In this case, you'll see a warning like this in the feature documentation:
-
-This in-development feature might not be available for your use. There can be
-[risks when enabling features still in development](../administration/feature_flags.md#risks-when-enabling-features-still-in-development).
-Refer to this feature's version history for more details.
-
-In the version history note, you'll find information on the state of the
-feature flag, including whether the feature is on ("enabled by default") or
-off ("disabled by default") for self-managed GitLab instances and for users of
-GitLab.com.
-
-If you're a user of a GitLab self-managed instance and you want to try to use a
-disabled feature, you can ask a [GitLab administrator to enable it](../administration/feature_flags.md),
-although changing a feature's default state isn't recommended.
-
-If you're a GitLab.com user and the feature is disabled, be aware that GitLab may
-be working on the feature for potential release in the future.
+For self-managed instances, [GitLab administrators can change the state of the flag](../administration/feature_flags.md).
