How to give only users unblock access in the gitlab server instead of giving admin privileges ?

2

You cannot.

Thanks for your reply, is there possible ways like any third-party tool is available for this?

This is my need : I need to give only user unblock user access for one user without giving admin access

Unfortunately there is no ability to set granular permissions in Gitlab, be it outside of Guest, Reviewer, etc. Or even for granular admin permission levels either. Since the permissions are controlled within Gitlab, no other external/third-party solution will help either since it still has to show those options with Gitlab, which isn’t possible.

I don’t know of any tool to that, but I think @iwalker 's dismissal is a bit too hasty.
A third party tool could connect to the API as an admin, but only expose (maybe only implement) some feature(s) to users of that.

If not secured properly such a tool could easily become a security hole, but it should be possible to make it reasonably secure.

Thanks @grove yeah forgot about the API. Could be done using that perhaps: Users API | GitLab

My mistake :slight_smile:
