A collection is a file area separate to the gallery. Assets in the collection can be located solely within the collection, or in the gallery as well.
Collections the user can access appear under the gallery in the main left-hand navigation.
You can use a collection if:
you want a set of assts to be visible only to selected groups of users
you want to highlight a set of assets for the users in your Mediebank
you want to share assets with users in another organization within your instance
All assets uploaded in Mediebank are owned by the original uploader and their organization. If an asset is added to a collection, it’s owner remains the same. Other organizations that share the collection cannot delete the asset.
Currently, there are no defined rules for the import flow to collections. The end user needs to actively choose to place assets in a collection by configuring their destinations. Likewise, assets can be removed from a collection.
