Collections

Collections are like folders, helping keep your digital experiences organized. Whether you have one digital experience or 20, you will need to create a Collection before you can begin building your first digital experience. Each digital experience created in a Studio will be organized within a Collection. There is no limit on the number of Collections allowed within a Studio. They are sorted alphabetically. Use Case Example: Collections help organizations with multiple brands and/or products organize digital experiences accordingly. A CPG company, for example, with four brand lines could create four Collections named Brand A, Brand B, Brand C, and Brand D. Within each Collection, Brand A may have a consumer-facing digital experience for how to use a product; a digital experience for internal employee communications; and a marketing campaign digital experience. 

Pro Tip: From the Experiences tab, use the ‘Search 'Experiences’ bar at the top of the page to search for a specific digital experience across all Collections.

Types of Digital Experiences Within Collections

There are four color coded digital experience statuses within a Collection: Draft, Editing, Published, and Empty. 

  • Draft: Work done within the digital experience - some content has been added - but the digital experience has never been published
  • Editing: Changes have been made to a published digital experience, but those updates have not been published.
  • Published: A digital experience is live and there are no unpublished changes.
  • Empty: A new digital experience has been added to a Collection, but no content has been added to the digital experience. It is completely empty.

How to Create a Collection

1
Click on the + icon next to Collections, located in the left hand column. A model window will appear.
2
Enter in the name of the new Collection. The name must be 35 characters or less.
3
Click Create to add the collection. Click Cancel to abandon the process.
Once the Collection is created, it will appear alphabetically in the left hand column. After the first Collection is created a green circle with the + icon will appear in the bottom right of the Studio, allowing Studio Users to create a digital experience. 
 
Pro Tip: When creating new digital experiences, click on the Collection the digital experience should be stored in before clicking the green circle with the + icon, as digital experiences will be saved to the Collection selected when this action is taken. Digital experiences can be easily moved between Collections.
