Native Document Collaboration
Create and edit documents right inside BIDOR. No more switching between apps.
What is Native Document Collaboration?
BIDOR now has a built in document editor. Instead of writing in Google Docs or Word and then uploading files, you can create documents directly inside your workspace. Add collaborators, track every version, and keep your documents connected to the workflows they belong to.
Creating a Document
- Click "New Doc" in the Document Hub. Give your document a title and start writing immediately. The editor opens right away.
- Use the formatting toolbar. Bold, italic, underline, headings, lists, links, and more. Everything you need to write clear documents.
- Auto save keeps your work safe. Your document saves automatically as you type, so you never lose progress.
Collaborating with Your Team
Add Collaborators
Invite team members by email. Each collaborator gets a role: Editor (can edit the document), Commenter (can leave comments), or Viewer (read only access). Only the document owner can add or remove collaborators.
Version History
Every time you save a version, BIDOR keeps a snapshot of the document. You can see who edited what and when, and browse the full history. This is useful when you need to review changes or understand how a document evolved over time.
- Each version records who made the change and when
- Browse through previous versions at any time
- Versions are capped to keep things manageable
- Manual "Save Version" button for important milestones
How It Fits with the Rest of BIDOR
Native documents live alongside your uploaded files in the Document Hub. You can:
- Organize with folders and tags. Keep native documents alongside uploaded files using the same folder structure.
- Search across everything. Find native documents by name using the same search you use for all your files.
- Keep context close. Write meeting notes, project briefs, or process documents right where the work happens.
Access Controls
Security
Documents are scoped to your organization. Only people in your organization and invited collaborators can access them. The document owner controls who has access and what role they have.
Use Cases
Project Briefs
Write the brief, share it with stakeholders, and keep it updated as the project evolves.
Meeting Notes
Take notes during meetings and share them with the team instantly. Everyone stays on the same page.
Process Documentation
Document your team's processes and keep them up to date without leaving BIDOR.
Policy Drafts
Draft policies with your team, track every revision, and know exactly who changed what.
Tip
Use native documents for anything you'd normally write in a separate app. Keeping everything in one place means less context switching and fewer lost files.
