# Protected Prompt Labels

Labels can be marked as protected to **prevent** accidental changes to production prompts. Protected labels block `viewer` and `member` roles from modifying or deleting them so only `admin` and `owner` roles can change which prompt version a protected label points to.

<div data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="/files/dlUxlAaoKjPupvBoMi4p" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

For example, protecting the `production` label means members can still create and iterate on new prompt versions, but can't change which version is actually serving traffic. This also blocks prompt deletion while the protected label is attached.
