# Edit a dashboard with other people at the same time

> See who else is editing a Mammoth dashboard, which chart they're on, and what happens when two people save or change the same thing at once.

Several people can edit a dashboard at once in the [dashboard editor](https://mammoth.io/docs/learn/dashboards/editor/). Nothing is locked: other people's saves merge into your view, and Mammoth asks you to choose only when you both changed the same thing.

## See who else is editing

- Avatars in the header show who else has the dashboard open (for example "Editing now: Priya and Sam").
- Click them to open **Editing now**. Each person shows which page they're on, or **On this dashboard** or **Idle**. **Go to** jumps to their page.
- Rings on the canvas show which chart someone is working on.
- When someone's assistant is running, you see, for example, "Priya · assistant working".

If you select a chart someone else is editing, you see, for example: "Priya is editing this chart too. Nothing is locked, but if you both save, the second save is refreshed onto the first."



## What happens when you both save

| Message | What it means |
| --- | --- |
| "Priya changed this dashboard" or "Priya made 3 changes to this dashboard" | Their change is in, and you're seeing the latest version. |
| "… just before you. Your change was saved on top of theirs." | Both changes are kept. |
| "… Save or discard your changes to see the latest version." | You have unsaved edits, so their change waits until you save or discard. |
| "… just before your last change, so yours wasn't saved. You're now seeing the latest version." | Make your change again on the latest version. |

If you both changed the same thing, a window asks you to choose, for example "Priya also changed the title". Click **Keep theirs** or **Use mine**. Everything else either of you changed is saved too.

## When someone archives or deletes the dashboard

| Message | What it means |
| --- | --- |
| "This dashboard was archived. You can keep editing; it's hidden from the library." | Archived. |
| "Priya moved this dashboard to trash. Changes you make now won't be kept." | Moved to trash. |
