Restrict channel creation
{!admin-only.md!}
Zulip allows you to separately control permissions for creating web-public, public and private channels.
For corporations and other organizations with controlled access, we recommend keeping channel creation open to make it easy for users to self-organize.
Only users in trusted roles (moderators and administrators) can be given permission to create web-public channels. This is intended to help manage abuse by making it hard for an attacker to host malicious content in an unadvertised web-public channel in a legitimate organization.
