description: |-
  This event specifies the minimum level a user must have in order to perform a
  certain action. It also specifies the levels of each user in the room.

  If a `user_id` is in the `users` list, then that `user_id` has the
  associated power level. Otherwise they have the default level
  `users_default`. If `users_default` is not supplied, it is assumed to be
  0. If the room contains no `m.room.power_levels` event, the room's creator has
  a power level of 100, and all other users have a power level of 0.

  Except for membership events and redactions, the level required to
  send a certain event is governed purely by `events`, `state_default`
  and `events_default`. If an event type is specified in `events`, then
  the user must have at least the level specified in order to send that
  event. If the event type is not supplied, it defaults to `events_default`
  for message events and `state_default` for state events.

  If there is no `state_default` in the `m.room.power_levels` event, or
  there is no `m.room.power_levels` event, the `state_default` is 50.
  If there is no `events_default` in the `m.room.power_levels` event,
  or there is no `m.room.power_levels` event, the `events_default` is 0.

  Membership events are not subject to `events`, `events_default`, or
  `state_default`. Instead, the power level required to invite a user
  to the room, kick a user from the room, or ban a user from the room
  is defined by `invite`, `kick`, and `ban`, respectively. The levels
  for `kick` and `ban` default to 50 if they are not specified in the
  `m.room.power_levels` event, or if the room contains no
  `m.room.power_levels` event. `invite` defaults to 0 in either case.
  Other membership values are handled during event authorization. See
  the authorization rules in [room versions](/rooms) for further details.

  For redactions of a user's own events, the required power level is
  determined by the `m.room.redaction` event power level, as per `events`
  and `events_default`. The power level required to redact an event sent
  by another user is _additionally_ governed by `redact`. The level for
  `redact` defaults to 50 if it is not specified in the `m.room.power_levels`
  event, or if the room contains no `m.room.power_levels` event.

  **Note:**

  The allowed range for power level values is `[-(2**53)+1, (2**53)-1]`,
  as required by the [Canonical JSON specification](/appendices/#canonical-json).

          Though not a default, when the server sends the initial power levels event during [room creation](/client-server-api#creation)
          in [room versions](/rooms) 12 and higher, the `m.room.tombstone` event MUST be explicitly defined and given
          a power level higher than `state_default`. For example, power level 150. Clients may override this using the
          described `power_level_content_override` field.

            power level of 0.

            **Note**: In room versions 12 and higher, room creators have infinite power level regardless
            of the existence of `m.room.power_levels` in the room. When `m.room.power_levels` is not
            in the room however, all other users have a power level of 0.
