The "authorize" argument applies to upload fields only. You can specify a function that takes the Row object of a given record and returns True or False to indicate whether the file is allowed to be retrieved (it is used in the Field's .retrieve() method, which is called by response.download() when attempting to download uploaded files). The particular function below simply checks that the user is logged in (i.e., authorization only depends on login and not anything specific to the Row itself). If authorization fails, and 403 response is returned.
