What is a Collection?

What is a Collection?

Assets in the system can be combined into groups. A group of assets is called a collection.

Collections make it possible to organize the convenient storage of assets as well as to work with multiple assets at the same time.

An asset may be part of different collections.

You can view collections created by others and create your own. For more information, see the Creating Collections and Managing access to collections article.
