Collections provide a way to group rooms and plugins (links) together. Permissions can be assigned to different groups of users so users will only see what they need.
Creating a Collection
Multiple collections can be created and assigned to users.
- In the left nav search for collections
- Click new collection
- Click show security settings
- Give permissions to the users that should see the collection
- You can give permissions to all users that have access to at least one room or link in the collection or specify a group of individuals. Users who do not have access to a room or link in the collection will see in empty collection.
- Give the collection a name and an upload or design an icon
- If you don't want the folders for each room to be displayed when expanding the collection, click hide global folders.
- If you do not click hide global folders, you can choose to hide folders for specific rooms in the collection. See examples at the end of this document.
- Search for and add the plugins (link) and/or rooms that you want to include in the collection in the search field.
- Click Save
Optional
Now that you've created the collection, you can add it to a category on the left navigation menu or add it to home feed apps.
- Add the collection to a category on the left nav
Add the collection to My Apps
