When using WPS Cloud Records on macOS, common questions usually involve record retention, visible change details, permission scope, and missing entry points; this FAQ includes 4 common questions and a glossary.
FAQ
How long are collaboration records kept?
- Collaboration records keep the latest 1000 operation records.
- After the limit is reached, older records are overwritten by newer ones.
- If you need a broader change review, use version history together with collaboration records.
Can I see exactly what was changed?
- Collaboration records show the action type and a content summary.
- If you need more detailed differences, open version history from the History entry.
- Using both views together makes it easier to locate the exact change.
Are actions from non-collaborators recorded?
- Only actions from collaborators with editing permission are recorded.
- Users with view-only access do not create collaboration records.
- If a person does not appear in the list, check their permission and whether they actually edited the document.
Why can’t I find the collaboration records entry?
- Make sure the current file is a cloud document.
- Confirm that collaboration mode is enabled for the document.
- Check that you are signed in with a WPS account and have access permission.
- If the entry is still unavailable, update WPS Office for Mac and try again.
