Collections
Collections let you group related content into curated bundles for easy access and organization. Unlike tags, which categorize individual items, collections create meaningful groupings of multiple pieces of content.
Creating a Collection
To create a new collection:
- Navigate to the Library in your dashboard.
- Click New Collection.
- Give your collection a descriptive name.
- Optionally add a description to explain the collection's purpose.
- Click Create to save the collection.
Adding Content to Collections
There are several ways to add content to a collection:
- From a content card — Use the actions menu on any content card to add it to one or more collections.
- Bulk select — Select multiple items in the library and add them to a collection at once.
- During capture — When creating new content, you can assign it to an existing collection right away.
A single piece of content can belong to multiple collections simultaneously.
Managing Collections
You can manage your collections from the library:
- Rename — Edit the collection name and description at any time.
- Remove items — Remove individual content from a collection without deleting it.
- Delete — Delete a collection. The content within it remains in your library.
Collections vs. Tags
Both collections and tags help organize content, but they serve different purposes:
| Feature | Tags | Collections |
|---|---|---|
| Purpose | Categorize individual items | Group related content together |
| AI support | Auto-generated by Gemini | Manual only |
| Best for | Topic classification | Project or theme groupings |
| Search integration | Keyword and semantic | Filter by collection |
