# Configure who can add bots
|
|
|
|
{!admin-only.md!}
|
|
|
|
Zulip lets you create three types of [bots](/help/bots-overview):
|
|
|
|
- **Incoming webhook bots**, which are limited to only sending messages into Zulip.
|
|
- **Generic bots**, which act like a normal user account.
|
|
- **Outgoing webhook bots**, which are generic bots that also receive
|
|
new messages via HTTPS POST requests.
|
|
|
|
You can configure who can create incoming webhook bots (which are more limited
|
|
in what they can do), and who can create any bot. Both permissions can be
|
|
assigned to any combination of [roles](/help/user-roles), [groups](/help/user-groups), and
|
|
individual [users](/help/introduction-to-users).
|
|
|
|
!!! warn ""
|
|
|
|
These settings only affect new bots. Existing bots will not be
|
|
deactivated.
|
|
|
