Hi @Jolyn32616166biga,

 

Hope you are doing well. Thank you for writing in!

 

From the description, it looks like the sender has set a security pin which has to be feed in to view the document.

I suggest reaching out to the sender to either get a fresh copy of the file without the password or the actual password of the file.

 

We do not store passwords of file within our servers and I fear I might not be able to help here much with getting the password.
