Getting sys version of f5 without ssh login

I cant provide f5 device credentials to a third lart tool due to security concern. Is there any option to create any user big ip role with only "show sys version". Or please provide an alternative method for it

    I already tried this using SNMP. Creating custom role in F5 s not possible..so you can create a SNMP with below oid in GUi or cli. 

     

    Adding OID fyi, you create using this 

     

    .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 (access should be ready only)
