Can we secure the Notes URL access in Powerapps Portals: https://site.powerappsportals.com/_entity/annotation/<noteGuid> from direct URL browsing in case of Notes Entity Permission enabled to Global.
It should be accessible to public inside the website but NOT from outside the website. Any CORS /Other setting help?
Hi Madhu,
You need assign ‘Authenticated Users’ web role to this note entity permission which make unauthenticated users can’t access the entity records.
you can refer following link to know more about web role.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/portals/configure/create-web-roles
1.One way is adding web role to the entity permission.
Go Portal Management > Entity Permission to click one permission for the entity you need.
2.Another way is adding entity permission to the web role.
Go Portal Management > web Role
Two ways has the same result, you can select either of these two ways.
Also, you can access web role to the page or website to control the access to the portal.

Thank you Leah.
In our case, an anonymous user need to upload a document to a form(entity).
After user uploaded a document, we need to secure this attachment from accessing anonymously with url _entity/annotation/<noteGuid>.
Can this be control with session / any other settings?
Hi Madhu，
The url that you don’t want anonymous user can access should in one page, so you can assign
Authenticated Users’ web role to the page as I mentioned above.
Regards,
We highly recommend users to migrate to PowerUsers community for new Portal questions:
powerusers.microsoft.com/.../PowerAppsPortals
Hi, does the anonymous user need read privileges? you can have the anonymous just writing and not reading in your entity permissions
