US Patent 11971947 Restricted editing and edit logging in a co-browse session

Restricting and logging editing operations in a co-browse session, includes establishing a co-browse session between a first participant and a second participant in which a Document Object Model (DOM) of a first browser at the first participant is transmitted to the second participant, and used at the second participant to recreate a content of the first browser at a second browser. The DOM includes a plurality of DOM elements. A list of editable elements is implemented at the first browser, the list of editable elements specifying a first subset of the DOM elements, fewer than all of the DOM elements. When restricted editing is enabled on the co-browse session, the second participant is allowed to interact with any DOM element of the first subset of DOM elements but is not allowed to interact with any DOM elements not in the first subset of DOM elements.
