Environment and project creation

Restrict project creation to admins and require members to use existing projects for environments.

Restrict project creation to admins and require members to create environments from existing projects only. When enabled, members cannot:

• Create new projects
• Create environments directly from repository URLs

Useful when:

• Ensuring all environments use vetted configurations (secrets, environment classes, devcontainers)
• Preventing ad-hoc projects and environments from arbitrary repositories
• Maintaining visibility into what your team is working on

This policy affects members only, not admins.

Configuration

Check Only admins can create projects in Settings → Policies under “Environment policies”.
