Share one file with multiple passwords

Good morning all,

 

In general, I have a file that I want to share, however need the file to be password protected for download.

 

Specifically I have ONE file, that I would like for multiple people to download (lets say 10 different people), and need to have a different password for each person to download.

 

Is that possible, and if so, how would one do it?

 

1 file, downloaded by 10 different people each with their own individual password.

 

Thank you.

    That's not possible. You can create a shared link to a file and password protect it (if that feature is available to you), but you can't specify more than one password.
