With the help of an example, explain the significance of 'read permission' on a workspace.

For remote state functionality of terraforming, the workspace’s outputs can be 'read' which allows distinct workspaces to function and work jointly in collaboration. For instance, let's look into the management teams. There are two different teams. The first one is the networking team whose job is to manage the resources of networking in one single workspace. The second team is the development team.

This team manages resources of development in a different workspace. The development team had to provision resources in the VPC of the networking team. But the development team should focus on the management of development resources rather than modifying the infrastructure of networking. It provides the development team with 'read' permissions on the workspace of the networking team for reading the outputs exposed by the networking team for the provision of resources of development.
