NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Cloud. Using Confluence Server? See the corresponding suggestion.
Problem statement
With Collaborative Editing enabled, all users are sharing the same draft. However, if a single user wants to leave the editor and discard his own changes, he doesn't have the option to do so unless:
- He manually removes his changes.
- He clicks on the 'Undo' button in the page until his changes are gone.
At present, he can only either remove everyone's changes or keep everyone's changes along with his own. Also, when you "Save and Close" Undo button will not remember the previous action, thus, Undo button will not disregard the changes.
Suggestion
Provide an extra button or option ("Discard my changes") whereby the user can discard his own changes.

[CONFCLOUD-45721] Allow users to discard their own changes with Collaborative Editing
Seven and a half years and counting waiting for basic functionality that every other product on the planet offers.
This is an embarrassment.
The omission of this functionality is absurd. It's yet another data point for the argument that Confluence Cloud was a step backwards for the platform.
Had the functionality with the on premise version and lost it after going to the cloud. This seems to be very basic functionality, what seems to be the hold up in fixing it ?
Unbelievable that such an essential feature is not working. Really turns the whole collaborative editing feature ad absurdum! Our workaround for now: No collaborative editing and nobody is allowed to leave an unpublished draft. Makes the whole feature pointless!
how long should we wait functionality to discard own changes?
i just edited the page and due to confluence bug it overwritten whole content with empty content, and disabled the undo button.
how should i revert and get my edited content back?
+1 .
If I open a page to copy a table (can't copy it well in View mode!!!) and then close the page, I end up with "unpublished changes". This is ridiculous. I need a way to discard this.
Add this fix cheesus christ, why is a feature being removed that is literally necessary. We have 'undo' for a reason...
Just writing to ensure there is at least a comment in 2023. I cannot fathom how the omission of Discard Changes functionality is appropriate in any universe, multiverse, alternate timeline, alternate dimension, or otherworld.
I still shudder over the thought of how many unintended edits I have published remain out in the wild.
When my colleague complained on this, I had not believed him. 6640ec01a8b8, any update on this? This is an epic fail.
