Only Logged in user can access folder/file using Owin

Hi,

I'm stuck here how can do it. Please help me. I'm describing in steps

I'm using Owin for registration and log in.

Step 1-

I have created a web Application in ASP.NET MVC just for User register and login.

Step 2-

I have written some codes in registration that my code will create a folder by username which are going to register.

Step 3-

Suppose Two users registered in our application and stored data into database which name is User1 and User2.

Step 3-

There are two folders created under root folder.

Suppose a root folder is UserFiles

Step 4-

I have added user1.pdf under User1 folder.

Same as for another user user2.pdf under User2 folder.

Step 5-

Direct URL to access these pdf will be:

http://localhost:9022/UserFiles/User1/user1.pdf

http://localhost:9022/UserFiles/User2/user2.pdf

Step 6-

The main requirement is here now:

Suppose User1 is logged in then User1 can access only own folder like below-

http://localhost:9022/UserFiles/User1/user1.pdf

And also when without logged in user is hitting these URL then our system will prompt and ask for log in and redirect in our login page.

You have to create your own authorize action attribute filter by which you can get this feature.
