Users not being able to see other users uploaded file in SharePoint document library.
Hi All,
I have made a SharePoint document library where i want my users to not see each other uploaded files and other filled columns in SharePoint document library.
Secondly i also want to know if there is any way to upload a file and fill other columns at the same time so that i can apply permission to stop editing after filled once.
Please let me know if there is any solutions for this questions.
Thank you in advance...

Hi hritik450, in lists, there is a setting available in the UI to show only items created by a user.
Unfortunately, in libraries, this option is not visible in the UI, but you can set it using for example a PnP PowerShell command:
Set-PnPList -Identity "Documents" -ReadSecurity AllUsersReadAccessOnItemsTheyCreate
Then users will see only documents created by them.
For changing the permissions of the items, you can use the approach defined here -> https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/business-apps/power-automate/guidance/manage-list-item-file-permissions
I hope this information helps.
