    <p>It's right there in the admin. You can set permissions for Users and Groups in the admin to add, change and delete specific models.</p> <p><strong>Update:</strong> Sorry, I misunderstood the question because I misinterpreted the word view to give it the Django meaning rather than "read-only". If you want read-only using the admin, I think you'll need to do a bit of work. See <a href="http://www.mail-archive.com/django-users@googlegroups.com/msg42534.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this thread</a>, where James Bennett (Django release manager) says:</p> <blockquote> <p>As you'll find by searching the archives of this list, this is not something the Django admin interface is designed to support, and so any solution will need to come entirely from you writing your own code.</p> </blockquote> <p>and</p> <blockquote> <p>The Django admin operates on three permissions: "add", "change" and "delete". There is no "view but make no modifications" permission, hence there is no way to apply such a restriction without doing significant custom coding.</p> </blockquote> <p>The additional work will involve you adding a "readonly" permission for certain models, and changing the basic admin templates to check if the user has that permission - and if so, disabling certain controls (such as save buttons) and making others read-only. That will prevent casual tinkering, but you may also need to modify server-side logic to check the same permission, to avoid any POSTs made in a sneaky way to circumvent permissions.</p>

    1. COI don't think you understood the question. How would I give someone permission to VIEW the data WITHOUT the ability to add, change or delete the data for a specific model.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
