Collaborating in Docs

Collaborating in Google Documents is a great way to work with others on various types of shared documents and/or make revisions to a document without creating several versions.

Get creative!

NOTE: In order to have people collaborate with you in a document, you must have shared it to that person(s) or have it in a Team Drive that you and that person(s) have access to edit the document from.

If you have not shared the document, please see the Share Files/Folders in Google Drive article for instructions

Open the document that you intend to collaborate in

As others open the document, you will see their GSuite picture/icon in the top right corner showing that they are there.

As you and others are typing within the document, you will be able to see their cursor with their name in real time and they will be able to see yours.

If you still encounter any issues after following these steps, please let us know by putting in a ticket.
