@Artem Ervits thanks for quick response, we are using these, but we would like to restrict users from creating new notebooks, which is not part of the documentation.

Currently there is no such functionality which can stop users from creating new Notebooks. Confirmed with the latest unreleased version as well as the below Apache Zeppelin mailing thread talks about it:

Although, as mentioned by Artem above, we can restrict access to Notebooks.
