Project integrations can be configured and enabled by project administrators. As a GitLab instance administrator, you can set default configuration parameters for a given integration that all projects can inherit and use, enabling the integration for all projects that are not already using custom settings.
You can update these default settings at any time, changing the settings in use for all projects that are set to use instance-level defaults. This also enables the integration for all projects on which it was not already enabled.
You can update these default settings at any time, changing the settings used for all
projects that are set to use instance-level or group-level defaults. Updating the
default settings also enables the integration for all projects that didn't have it
already enabled.
It is only possible to inherit the complete settings for an integration. Per-field inheritance is [planned](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/2137), as well as [group-level management](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/2543) of integration settings.

## Manage default settings for a project integration
## Manage instance-level default settings for a project integration **(CORE ONLY)**
1. Navigate to **Admin Area > Settings > Integrations**.
1. Select a project integration.
1. Select an integration.
1. Enter configuration details and click **Save changes**.
CAUTION: **Caution:**
This may affect all or most of the projects on your GitLab instance. Please review the details below.
This may affect all or most of the groups and projects on your GitLab instance. Please review the details below.
If this is the first time you are setting up instance-level settings for an integration:
- The integration is enabled for all projects that do not already have this integration configured if you have the **Enable integration** toggle turned on in the instance-level settings.
-Projects that already have the integration configured are not affected, but can choose to use the inherited settings at any time.
- The integration is enabled for all groups and projects that do not already have this integration configured if you have the **Enable integration** toggle turned on in the instance-level settings.
-Groups and projects that already have the integration configured are not affected, but can choose to use the inherited settings at any time.
When you make further changes to the instance defaults:
- They are immediately applied to all projects that have the integration set to use instance-level default settings.
- They are immediately applied to newer projects, created since you last saved defaults for the integration.
- If your instance-level default setting has the **Enable integration** toggle turned on, the integration is automatically enabled for all such projects.
- Projects with custom settings selected for the integration are not immediately affected and may choose to use the latest instance-level defaults at any time.
- They are immediately applied to all groups and projects that have the integration set to use default settings.
- They are immediately applied to newer groups and projects, created since you last
saved defaults for the integration. If your instance-level default setting has the
**Enable integration** toggle turned on, the integration is automatically enabled for
all such groups and projects.
- Groups and projects with custom settings selected for the integration are not immediately affected and may choose to use the latest defaults at any time.
Only the complete settings for an integration can be inherited. Per-field inheritance
is [planned](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/2137). This would allow
administrators to update settings inherited by groups and projects without enabling the
integration on all non-configured groups and projects by default.
## Manage group-level default settings for a project integration
1. Navigate to the group's **Settings > Integrations**.
1. Select an integration.
1. Enter configuration details and click **Save changes**.
CAUTION: **Caution:**
This may affect all or most of the subgroups and projects belonging to the group. Please review the details below.
