Hello Everyone,
I have a requirement to make all fields and UI actions read-only in the preview popup of a reference field for a specific catalog item on the Service Portal. This should not affect other catalog items.
Let's say I have a reference field called 'Requested For' on a catalog item, and it refers to the sys_user table. Whenever I preview this field, the preview form for the user record should be read-only.
Can anyone help me with this requirement?

Hi Ankur,
The requirement is it should be non-editable to everyone including admins.

then ensure properly table level WRITE ACL is configured so that only correct set of users are seeing it as editable
You cannot add UI policy or client script to that popup view.

@Ankur Bawiskar , the requirement is not for specific set of users, it should be read-only on particular catalog item.
