An attribution query pertaining to a selected portion of a client model of a collaborative electronic document is received from a client device. The selected portion of the client model corresponds to a first coordinate location within a first coordinate structure of the client model of the collaborative electronic document. A first revision identifier associated with a first change at the first coordinate location of the client model is identified. The first coordinate location corresponds to a second coordinate location within a second coordinate structure of a server model of the collaborative electronic document. Attribution information that is associated with the first revision identifier is retrieved. The attribution information is provided to the client device in response to the attribution query.

Tracking attribution of content in an online collaborative electronic document

An indication of a first change is received at a first coordinate location of a client model of the collaborative electronic document. The first coordinate location is within a coordinate structure of the collaborative electronic document. The first change is applied at a second coordinate location of a server model of the collaborative electronic document. The first change is associated with a first revision identifier. An attribution model is generated that includes a coordinate structure that corresponds to at least a portion of the coordinate structure of the collaborative electronic document and includes a third coordinate location that corresponds to the first coordinate location and the second coordinate location. The third coordinate location of the attribution model is updated with the first revision identifier. The attribution information for the first change is stored in association with the first revision identifier.
