About visibility changes for projects

You can restrict who has the ability to change the visibility of projects in your organization, such as restricting members from changing projects from private to public.

You can limit the ability to change project visibility to just organization owners, or you can allow anyone granted admin permissions to change the visibility.

This option may not be available to you if an enterprise owner restricts visibility changes for projects at the enterprise level. For more information, see Enforcing policies for projects in your enterprise.
