Multiple Editors on a Document

[Sarah Keane]

Hello everyone!

I wanted to ask about versioning on documents in confluencing - what has people's experience been with this? Is it possible for multiple people to check out a document at once and users to update at the same time? Considering using it for user stories for our next project!

Thanks in advance,

Sarah

Hey Sarah,

Yes, it is possible for multiple users to edit a page (document) at the same time.

If there are multiple people editing there will be an icon at the top left of the page showing the other users that are also editing.

When one user attempts to publish their changes the may be asked to push all changes by all of the users currently editing.

These settings are also configurable and these documents should provide you some additional information:

Hope this helps,
