ACL groups

Phabricator contain some ACL projects which is used to enforce policy restrictions. The following is a partial list of ACL projects; the description is usually only part of permissions of the groups.

ACL projects are for access control only; they are not meant to be used for task management. Tasks should be added to a corresponding team project (which is public).

Other than those indicated specifically, membership application are handled by tasks in the Phabricator project.

Trusted-Contributors
A minimal policy control group for access to certain features in Phabricator which might be prone to abuse, including "protect as security issue" feature and personal Herald rules.
acl*Batch-Editors
Have permission of batch edits.
acl*Project-Admins
Create projects. See phab:T706 for permission request. Note public projects may be edited by all Trusted-Contributors.
acl*repository-admins
Create and edit Diffusion Repositories.
Policy-Admins and subprojects; acl*sre-team, acl*stewards, acl*otrs-admins, etc.
Various "policy admins" projects are used to manage access policies of Phabricator objects (for example, tasks and other projects). They are also used in space policies. Other than dedicated "policy admins" projects, ACL projects may also be created for otherwise defined restricted user groups or WMF teams.
acl*phabricator

acl*security_volunteer
Other volunteer with access to security issues.

Administrators

Administrators can do and break a lot, although in Phabricator they are not all-powerful by design. They can access protected data (except your password), and they can make it accessible to others accidentally. However, administrators cannot bypass object access policies.

For these reasons, membership of the Administrators team is very restricted. No one can be an administrator in Phabricator without signing an NDA. A process to join/leave this team must be defined (currently, please file a task under phab:tag/phabricator/ and explain your reasoning). Also see the (now obsolete) Bugzilla administrator rights policy.

Some tasks (e.g. removing Two Factor Authentication) may not be done by ordinary Phabricator administrators; They may only be performed by people with shell access to Phabricator servers.
