The session feature is inconvenient because it restricts users from editing markups created by others. It would be helpful to have a function that allows only authorized users to edit them. Does such a feature exist?
If you want markups to be editable, perhaps use Bluebeam Studio Projects rather than Sessions - any invited user can be given permissions to edit.
Making this switch limits the collaborative qualities of a Session, though. It all depends on the big picture of what you aim to achieve.
Here's a technical support article that answers this question.
Session Markups locked and can't be edited
Basically, you can only edit the markup YOU made IN the Session. Outside of that, you'd have to download the file, edit it in Revu, and then upload the new version to the Session.
As others have said, you can't do this. You might want to consider re-posting in Product Feedback — your desire for the ability to have (controlled) editability of others' markups in a Session is definitely needed.

I cannot access Bluebeam cloud on the iPad through any browser (tried edge and chrome). Can only use the app. I created a session and placed my PDF site plan in it. I also then placed all the all the mark-ups I had in my tool set that I want to use in the PDF. I was hoping to be able to copy, past, and edit them where I…
Hi all We are relatively new to Bluebeam but use it every day in our work, it's a great tool that has helped us immensely since we started using it. However, we recently updated to the latest version and since then we are having a bit of trouble, we have contacted technical support and they have given us a couple of…
Hi all, I am looking into automating PDF overlays to compare architectural changes. Since there are more than 100 drawings, I am trying to create a hook that triggers when files are updated in the folder, automatically overlaying the PDFs and saving the output to a specified destination.
How can I delete a portion of the info from the Title where a file has hundreds of pages? The reason is when I send the file to the subcontractor, I dont want them to view my client's info or the project info. Only the drawing is enough.
In Bluebeam Revu 21, when I click on a markup, the properties tab does not update to show the properties of the selected markup. The only way I have found to fix this is to close and restart Revu. But this problem keeps repeating almost every day, it is extremely frustrating when adding markups to have to repeatedly…
Is there a way to set a customized Tool Chest/Tool Box as the "My Tools" default, so that the symbols/markups you have in your custom set can have the number shortcuts? I have created my own "My Tools" with customized formatted markups. However, I was hoping to share them with others in the office so they don't have to…
Is there a way to adjust the way a Markup/Callout can be input into a document when it comes from the Tool Chest? "My Tools" are setup with pre-formatted callouts for certain types of Quality Reviews of Construction documents. The formatting is office-wide. I created the shortcuts so i can have a "Hot Key" associated to…
What's up ya'll?! Does anyone else have a recurring copy/paste issue where you are not allowed to copy a markup and paste onto a different sheet within the same file? This has only recently appeared. The issue is resolved when I restart my computer but simply restarting bluebeam does not solve the issue. I am on the latest…
Hello - Does anyone know of any companies that review the quality of construction drawings prior to construction? Any that utilize AI? Thank you!
Hi, I am trying to figure out the best way to do collaborative P&ID markups with multiple colleagues using Bluebeam. We would like to do real-time collaborative markups of P&ID:s without having to check files in and out and then being able to download one or more files from the session to send to other disciplines, without…
