Live editing is the default editing mode for any newly-created GitBook space. A space in live edit mode is editable by anyone with the right permissions.
With live editing enabled, you can see the avatars of anyone currently viewing the space in the top-right corner.
GitBook supports live collaboration, meaning you’ll be able to work on the same document with multiple members at the same time.
You can toggle live edit mode in a space by selecting Lock live edits or Unlock live edits from the space’s Action menu .
You cannot unlock live editing if:
a space is published with the In collection, Public, or Unlisted visibility option. We know this is a limitation, and we hope to change this in the future.
a space has GitHub or GitLab Sync enabled.
Only users with the admin or creator roles can lock or unlock live edits.
