Use Collaborative Editing
With Collaborative Editing, when someone else is editing a task or Doc, you'll see their live cursor typing, and you have the ability to edit at the same time.
When Collaborative Editing is disabled, ClickUp Docs will allow only one user at a time to make edits. To take control of a Doc being actively edited by another user, click Take over the top of the Doc.
