Every project directly under the group namespace will be +available to the user if they have access to them. For example, every public +project in the group will be available to every logged in user. However, +private projects will be available only if the user has view [permissions](../permissions.md) +in the project. That is, users with Owner, Maintainer, Developer, Reporter or Guest roles for projects, +or for groups to which the project belongs. + +Projects of nested subgroups of a selected template source cannot be used. + +Repository and database information that are copied over to each new project are +identical to the data exported with [GitLab's Project Import/Export](../project/settings/import_export.md). + +If you would like to set project templates at an instance level, please see [Custom instance-level project templates](../admin_area/custom_project_templates.md).
