      Feature request for enhancing role-based UI permissions for read-only users.

      Current behavior:

      Users with read-only permissions can still:
      1. Access the "Event details" page from the dashboard.
      2. See navigation menu items such as:
         - Support
         - Integrations
         - Help

      These elements expose information or actions that are not intended for monitoring-only users.

      Request:

      Introduce more granular UI permission controls for the read-only role (or for roles in general), specifically:

      1. Ability to disable access to the "Event details" page for read-only users.
      2. Ability to hide selected menu items from read-only users, including:
         - Support
         - Integrations
         - Help

      Possible approach:

      • Add specific toggles under role permissions (e.g. "View event details page", "Show Support menu", etc.)

      Benefits:

      • Ensures sensitive event details are accessible only to authorized users.
      • Provides a cleaner, simplified interface for read-only users.
      • Prevents confusion and unnecessary access to external or administrative sections.
      • Improves security and overall user experience.

      Attached are some screenshots of the sections to be hidden from read-only users, as they are not particularly relevant to them.
