Hi Teerarat
What you mean generate user role read-only? Have you created a custom role?

To get info via REST API on an F5 device, the user needs a role like "Administrator" or "Resource Administrator" — basically, any role with read access to the resources you're querying.

Hi Hafizailam,
Thank you vert much for information, do you have link about this information?

You definitely not need an admin account for this.
Guest account has read only access and should be enough
Next option is to use Auditor role
