Overview
Collections provide a way to segment and restrict information within your Content Library. An example use case for this would be if you have content specific to a geographical location and you wanted to restrict and provide access to the users within each region. You can create a collection for each region (such as the United States, Europe, or Asia Pacific) and assign your team members accordingly. For a visual guide, refer to the Academy course Content Library Collections.
Q&A pairs, document, sections, and catalogs and files can be included in collections.
