Protect repository environments

Protects a single environment:

POST /projects/:id/protected_environments
curl --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --request POST \
     --data '{"name": "production", "deploy_access_levels": [{"group_id": 9899826}]}' \
     --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" \
     "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/22034114/protected_environments"
Attribute Type Required Description
id integer/string yes The ID or URL-encoded path of the project owned by the authenticated user.
name string yes The name of the environment.
deploy_access_levels array yes Array of access levels allowed to deploy, with each described by a hash.
required_approval_count integer no The number of approvals required to deploy to this environment. This is part of Deployment Approvals, which isn't yet available for use. For details, see issue.

Elements in the deploy_access_levels array should be one of user_id, group_id or access_level, and take the form {user_id: integer}, {group_id: integer} or {access_level: integer}. Each user must have access to the project and each group must have this project shared.

Example response:

{
   "name": "production",
   "deploy_access_levels": [
      {
         "access_level": 40,
         "access_level_description": "protected-access-group",
         "user_id": null,
         "group_id": 9899826
      }
   ],
  "required_approval_count": 0
}
