# Collaborate

To begin a collaboration session:

1. **Open the Sync Panel**\
   Locate and click the **Sync** tab in your interface to reveal the panel.
2. **Click "Collaborate"**\
   In the top-left corner of the Sync Panel, select the **Collaborate** button.
3. **Select the Central File**\
   Select the Central file from [Google Drive](https://sync.wiki.mksdtech.com/collaboration/collaborate/collaboration-storage/google-drive) or [Network Drive](https://sync.wiki.mksdtech.com/collaboration/collaborate/collaboration-storage/network-drive).
4. **Initiate Collaboration**\
   Once the file is selected, your project is ready for multi-user editing. Other team members can connect to the same central file and start working simultaneously.
