How do I create role for read only permission of product in magento 2 admin

Question

I want to create an admin user whose access is only to read the products in Magento 2. I checked but was only able to give the user access together with Edit and Delete action which I don't want to give

The access that I want to give to the admin user

• Product View

The access that I don't want to give to the admin user

• Product Edit
• Product Delete

Seeking help to provide solution or the nearest possible solution that can help achieve solution on this matters

Thank you

There is no such option in Magento 2, you may create a system configuration where you can select admin users to prevent edit and delete the Product. And you can add your custom JS code on catalog/product/index and catalog/product/edit Page to remove Add New Product, Maas Action drop-down and from the edit page you can remove Add Attribute and Save Button.

Or you can create a plugin before save and delete, and add your logic there.
