Do things change or get any better with version 12.x? Is it really that nearly impossible to setup a read-only user for the iControl REST API? Our users, other than the main admin account, are not local accounts. They are authenticated on a remote (ACS) server.
We need to provide API access for some groups who would like to check the status of resources. I know this will grow to providing users update access to certain objects, but starting with read-only would help a lot.
I defined a user as 'guest' role. I look at the structures and it appears to be defined like other accounts-- which seem to be full access.. But perhaps it is no access as that is how it seems to behave.
I would want to generate a token for this read-only user that could then be used.
