Provide a view only access, which will allow them to view information via Power App. Any changes to the data, PowerApp will pass that information to Power Automate, which has "Run Only User" enabled with someone who can edit the list.
If it's a bunch of changes or multiple before updating to the list, I recommend store that information in a collection, and once they're ready they can submit it all to update the list.
