You can now restrict column permission to view, or edit. But I need to be able to restrict view to some persons, and to restrict edit to others… Now we can only choose between the two. I hope this is a minor developer task, but big pain point 
Hi Monday community… any feedback on this??? Is this on a roadmap?
I could really use this functionality as well!

Yes please
This feature would be super helpful for us as well, as we are running into some pretty major concerns with not being able to restrict viewing and editing separately for specific team members.
We have a board with about 40 columns per item, and need to be able to apply unique restrictions to specific team members, depending on their job position.
I hope this gets taken into serious consideration by the product team, as it would be great and very impactful improvement.

Just updated to Pro, in large part for column permissions – I just cannot believe that edit and view cannot be defined separately. I initially thought that I was doing something wrong!
We need multiple columns to be visible only to a team, yet editable by nobody. Why can’t I do this? Ugh.
Yes, would love to have this feature added. I also need for our team.
Any update on this?

Hello,
I definitely need this option! We can already restrict edit permission to a column and also restrict the viewing permissions, but not both at the same time 
Why? Even Monday bot told me it was possible. It seems this can be a quick upgrade for Monday since the functionality is already there and it just a matter to let both restrictions be in place for the same column
Any updates on this?
Heads up that this feature request is still a really big need for us!!! I recommend building out the permissions menu like this 
Right now the permissions settings menu looks like this…
So in practice, all you’d need to do is just put two tabs at the top for: viewing and editing. Then users could switch between those two tabs and control the permissions for individual members/guests very easily.
I’m also requesting support for the “people” column field to be an option in this menu, because right now you can only pick between teams and individual users, which is very tedious and not scalable. Using the “people” column field would allow a specific category of person (whoever is assigned in the column of the “people variable”) to be subject to the permissions in that column.
So in my situation, the actual use-case is that I have separate columns for different roles that each item needs: video editor, creator, project manager, and creative strategist. If this permissions menu could dynamically read the other column titles and dynamically call whichever person belongs to each column by it’s column name (as long as it’s a “people” column), then all we would need to do is pick the corresponding “people” column from the menu, and monday could set the view & edit permissions separately in the target column (the one we’re setting the permissions in). This makes it much easier to assign permissions to dymanic “roles” that we use columns to assign/manage.
I know this is an extra step, but the scope is pretty small since this would only need support for the people type column, since you can only actually assign people in terms of column values.
If you could also include support for “all members”, “all guests”, and “all viewers” as selectable options that appear in search, then that would be a really juicy bonus.
But anyway, just doing those first two things would solve almost all column permission needs in almost all use-cases at the same time at scale for almost all users. Just saying, this would be the most scalable way to do it imo.
