Note: The "Access to full version history" toggle is always enabled by default and cannot be adjusted. All collaborators with this type of permission will have access to the document version overview.

How can I see who has access to a specific version of the document history?

To see who else has access to a certain document version:

• Open the document.
• Click on the Version history icon in the right-hand sidebar.
• Hover over the small info icon within the version history, which visibility you want to check.
• A list of "Version visible to" will automatically expand, allowing you to see who else except you can see this specific history of edits in the document:

Which parts of the document version history can I see as a document owner?

If you have created the document, you will see all available since the document's creation versions and be allowed to check who else can see them.

• The owner of a document can always see the complete version history and all collaborators it is visible to, without any exceptions.

Which parts of the document version history can I see as a document collaborator?

• If you are invited as a collaborator to the document with direct share access, you will be allowed to:
  • See all document versions if the access to full version history was enabled along with the shared permission. 
  • See all document versions if you have full access permission in the document.
  • See only those document versions initiated after the document was shared with you if the access to full version history was disabled when the document was shared.   

Which parts of the document version history can I see as a contract recipient?

• If you are a recipient of a pending contract, you will only be allowed to see the last available version history after the document was sent for signature, disregarding your permission access level in the document.

Which parts of the document version history can collaborators in team and shared folders see?

• If you have access to a document through a Shared folder or from your Team's folder, you can access all document versions, starting from the latest document version formed when you first opened the document.
• You will only see public document versions until the first time you open the document within a Shared with you or your Team folder.
• If you are the creator of the Shared folder, you can always see the complete version history and retrieve an overview of all collaborators with access to the version history within the documents added to the folder.
