File download only post authentication

Background:
I am using AppSheet with OneDrive as storage.

App path on OneDrive:
/MyApp/Report/sample.pdf
/MyApp/Report/sample.docx

I have a column of type “file” and using form a PDF & a word file can be uploaded to the path “/MyApp/Repoprt/uploaded_file.pdf”

Post uploading & saving, the detailed view of the record allows the file to be downloaded via the file icon shown in AppSheet.

The problem is the URL is unprotected, that is if I copy the download URL of both PDF / Word file from the browser it can be used by anyone, in any machine and at any time without any restriction.

My question is can it be secured so that files can only be downloaded only if there is an active session of AppSheet in the browser or else it should ask for user to sign-in and authenticate before the download.
