In the give usecase, https://docs.permify.co/getting-started/examples/google-docs How can we achieve version control of documents?

@pooka96 I'm not on the Permify team and not familiar with what you're asking. You might want to post more, for the Permify team, to explain what you're aiming to do.

Hi @pooka96, thanks for the question (and @joelparkerhenderson for jumping in)

  • If you mean Permify documents (schemas) → version control is up to you, typically by keeping DSL files in Git and managing changes via PR/review.
  • If you mean the Google Docs use case → Permify doesn’t provide document versioning itself; that’s handled in your storage/app logic. Permify only enforces who can access or edit which version once versions are modeled as resources.

If you mean something else, could you clarify?

@ucatbas I was looking for Google Docs use case. Thank you for clarifying.
