Im confused by Process Model security for Initiator. From Appian Docs below, Initiator can start the process model but so can Viewers. I have a set of users I want to View the process model but not be an Initiator of the process via actions. How can this be achieved if Viewers also have Initiator rights?

When viewing the Process Model Security dialog box, configure the process model security by selecting the desired security setting for the users or groups listed. The rights for each security setting are listed in the table below.

Thanks for responding. I mean I want some users to be able to view the data of a process instance, via the Records, Reports, News, etc., I grant them access to via groups; but not have rights to initiate the process. If process model Viewers also have Initiator rights, how do you create viewers you don't want to have initiator rights? Users with Viewers process model rights can currently see the Action and execute the Action and Initiate the process. This is supported by the docs, which leaves me wondering how to allow users to view the process model data and not be able to initiate the model?
