Use the Read Only function so users can view an input field but not make edits. This option is available for text, email, number, date, multi-select, and drop-down elements, to name a few. It allows the user to view the text; they cannot make any changes, such as deleting or editing the text.
The Read only option is similar to the disable option. There are elements with the disable option only, such as the button element and don’t have the read-only option. The user cannot type any text in the field. The main difference is the UI, and the disable option has greyed-out text. See the below example of disable and read-only:
