| # Snippets API
 | |
| 
 | |
| > [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/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
