About This Feature

Overview

Enable Collaboration Sharing is a WPS Cloud Documents feature in WPS Office for Windows that lets you upload a local document to the cloud and invite other people to view or edit the same file through a shared link.

Core capabilities include:

  • Start collaboration quickly from the Share button at the top right of the window.
  • Set link permissions for viewing, editing, or designated people.
  • Save collaborative documents in the cloud and review version history and collaboration records.

This feature fits team drafting, remote review, information collection, and multi-person revision scenarios. After collaboration is enabled, the document is saved to Personal Space for later access and management across devices.
