Directus 9, how can I set permissions on Files?

I have an App with private messages, the messages are stored in a directus collections, each item has multiple Attachments (files). How can I restrict access to these files for other users, that are not in the Conversation?

I have tried set up a usergroup for each conversation, but I think its not the best way to do it.

And another question, how can I set the "mine" permission on files?

I wonder if there is any option to configure the access for each folder? At least to configure on the roles that is able to view each folder.

  1. From setting menu -> roles and permissions
  2. Select public roles then system collections
  3. At files collection allow public to view permission

Now any public user can download your file.
