Collections are ordered groupings of pages and posts. They’re the way you build navigation menus and listings for your site, without hard-coding those links into a template. To find your collections, click on CMS in the main navigation menu, then open Collections.
These are CMS collections, which group content. They are not the same as product collections, which group products in your catalogue.

​
What a collection holds

A collection is an ordered list of items. Each item in a collection can have its own:
  • Title
  • Link
  • Description
Because the list is ordered, the sequence you set in the dashboard is the sequence your visitors see — so a collection works equally well as a navigation menu or as a curated listing.

​
Using collections

Collections are useful for:
  • Navigation menus — a header or footer menu, with each item pointing at a page
  • Listings — a blog index, a set of guides, or any other grouping of content you want to surface together
Collections are also available over the headless CMS API at /v1/cms/collections, so a front end hosted elsewhere can pull the same navigation and listings. See the API reference.
