Can it be done? I need to just list a predefined query and put it inside a document as a “dashboard” and I don’t want any actions to be usable, even if the user has create access to the entity database
Nope! Only solution I can think of it making it a report view of table type. But then you also can’t open the entities or edit them, but they are updated. But maybe that’s okay if it’s just get an overview?
The view controls are quite set in stone…
I would kill to turn this off. The entry point for creating records should be consistent. I don’t like that there is a “create new entity” button in the top left, another “+ New” button in the top right of views, and a “+ New entity” button at the bottom of the table, each with their own behaviours. This is confusing to my users in particular, who struggle with tech at the best of times

Ah you could actually do this with custom CSS:
.embedded_view .view_actions_layout{
display: none;
}
.embedded_view .add_button{
display: none;
}
You’d need install a plugin (FiberFlow) and make your own tweak and put in here. Not ideal for new users, but maybe it could be set up for them? Not sure. @derbenoo, still working on having the tweaks sync across a workspace url automatically?

Hey Ron,
thanks for providing a custom CSS solution 
I will create a Fibery Tweak for this & also build the sync across workspace for admins this weekend

@AdVhPkgKad The Fibery Tweak is ready! 
I added fine-grained controls to toggle each of the embedded view actions. By default everything is hidden except search & expand. I will include the tweak in the next version of the Fiberflow Chrome Extension.
I will also work on the feature that Fibery workspace admins can manage Fibery Tweaks for their workspace users. This way you can roll out this tweak to all of your less-technical users, they only need to have the browser extension installed. Furthermore, I will implement Tweak Conditions, so that you can add a condition e.g. to only activate this tweak for workspace members (admins will still see all controls).
Hope that this solves your problem
While this is cool, I’d prefer a native solution without enforcing browser extensions. It’s already bad enough that none of the tech my colleagues are using is standardised. Some devices are years old and probably already don’t support the app.
I’d prefer to turn off the add button in the table itself since it doesn’t display as a modal form. It breeds bad practice and taking the path of least resistance if employees are presented only the minimum amount of fields required to pass the validation.

Native solution would be best - I agree. We have to see whether the Fibery team picks up this feature request and implements it. Best I can do for now is to implement the feature via a browser extension
Just in case somebody is interested in the extension, I made it possible for workspace admins to install Fibery Tweaks for all their workspace users. No login or anything, they just need to have the extension installed.
