How to see who viewed your Google Doc

Google Docs offers an activity dashboard that allows users to see who has viewed or shared their documents, provided they have a Google work or school account with editing privileges. This feature can be accessed by selecting "Activity dashboard" under the "Tools" menu in a Google Doc. However, viewing activity may be limited if users have disabled the feature or if an account administrator has restricted it for the organization. Additionally, Google might not show all viewers if a document has been accessed extensively. Users can also manage privacy settings to limit who can see their view history and adjust sharing permissions to control document access. For those who want to automate notifications of document views or shares, tools like Zapier can integrate with Google Docs to notify team members through various channels.
