Documentation rule: this VauSheet section describes the current implemented product behavior. It avoids claiming full Microsoft Excel parity or live-cursor collaboration where the current build does not provide it.
01
Save pipeline
VauSheet separates immediate local editing from cloud persistence so the grid does not need to block on every network request.
01
Edit workbook
Change a cell, sheet, formatting or supported workbook property.
Expected result
The local workbook state changes immediately.
02
Checkpoint
The client stores pending workbook state after a short debounce.
Expected result
A recoverable local checkpoint is available for interrupted sessions.
03
Autosave
After the cloud-save debounce, VauSheet computes workbook operations against the synchronized base.
Expected result
Only meaningful changes proceed to the sync API.
04
Server sync
The sync service processes version/lock/merge rules and persists the workbook payload.
Expected result
A new synchronized version is returned on success.
05
Saved state
The editor hydrates the accepted merged workbook and briefly shows Saved.
Expected result
Local base version now matches cloud state.
02
Manual Save
Use the visible Save button when you want to request synchronization immediately rather than waiting for the debounce window.
03
Retry behavior
Retryable failures use a bounded backoff, starting around 1.5 seconds and increasing toward a 30-second cap. Reconnecting the browser also triggers another save attempt.
