A method of providing user access history for a collaborative document includes receiving, by a server, a first request for the collaborative document from a client device of a user of a plurality of users that have permission to access the collaborative document; providing the collaborative document to the client device for presentation to the user in a user interface on the client device; determining whether a collaborator type of the user matches a predefined collaborator type; responsive to determining that the collaborator type of the user matches the predefined collaborator type: creating a first user access history for the collaborative document based on accesses of the collaborative document by one or more of the plurality of users, and providing the first user access history for the collaborative document to the client device for display within a consolidated view of the user interface presenting the collaborative document.
