Hello!
I'm trying to configure role for view-only guest accounts that need access to view VMs configuration and console, but should not be able to change anything nor input something to console.
I've created role with VM.Audit, VM.Console and VM.Monitor privileges, which kind of does the trick. But it allows user to interact with console (use mouse/keyboard), which I'm trying to prevent.

Is there any additional option or undocumented privilege that could help me? Is there any plans for such features, if not implemented now?
Thanks in advance.
 
There is an option on noVNC settings is`view only` is that help you?

Thank you for answer!
This option does exactly what I need, but is configured from client side, and require bigger level of trust to remote client.
It would be awesome if there is a way to enforce this option checked on per-user basis, preferably using Proxmox user privileges.

To be able to assign to users. VMs or Pools would be a great feature
