# Group-level protected environments API **(PREMIUM)**
> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/215888) in GitLab 14.0. [Deployed behind the `group_level_protected_environments` flag](../administration/feature_flags.md), disabled by default.
> - [Feature flag `group_level_protected_environments`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/331085) removed in GitLab 14.3.
> - [Generally available](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/331085) in GitLab 14.3.

Currently, these levels are recognized:
```plaintext
30 => Developer access
40 => Maintainer access
60 => Admin access
```

```shell
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/groups/5/protected_environments/"
```
Example response:
```json
[
{
"name":"production",
"deploy_access_levels":[
{
"access_level": 40,
"access_level_description": "Maintainers",
"user_id": null,
"group_id": null
}
],
"required_approval_count": 0
}
]
```
## Get a single protected environment
