Local files and online shared files

GPDoc does not store your local files. A local document stays in the device, folder, Git repository, or provider location you select until you explicitly share, publish, or move it through an online workflow.

Local files

• Open and edit supported Markdown, GPDoc, notebook, slide, script, dataset, and drawing files on the current client.
• Save changes back through the file authority exposed by that client.
• Create detached exports such as HTML, PDF, Markdown, LaTeX, .ipynb, CSV, PowerPoint, SVG, or PNG where the file type supports them.
• Use your device or organization controls for encryption, backup, retention, and access.

An installed client may use recovery data to protect an editing session. That recovery data is not a separately managed GPDoc document service.

Shared files

Shared files are stored online and require a network connection. The online file authority supports live collaboration, participant presence, comments, suggestions, sharing roles, and synchronized save state.

If a connection is unavailable, do not assume that another collaborator can see the current local state. Reconnect and confirm the shared file before relying on a remote change or publishing action.

Private hosting

If your organization needs privately hosted shared files or a dedicated collaboration environment, contact support@gpdoc.io. Availability, deployment model, and operating responsibility need to be discussed for that environment.
