Make file available after completing assignment

I use Canvas assignments to collect student homework uploads, then post a pdf answer key following the due date.  There's usually a few students who turn in the assignment late. 

Is there any way to make a file's availability dependent on whether a student has submitted an assignment?  I hate delaying the answer key, but it doesn't seem fair to give the late students free access to it.

Here is a work around where you could set up the answer key in a module that has a pre-requisite set before it could be accessed. I'm not sure you can do this with individual assignments, so multiple answer keys could feasibly require multiple modules.
