Select Assets in Collection

Important Notes When Using Folders in Collections

📌 Collection folders can not have permissions set on them. You can only set permission on the collection itself, which will automatically set asset permissions on all the assets inside the collection. See Collection Permissions here. 📌 Deleting a folder does not delete the assets inside—they will still exist in the original Collection. 📌 Assets can be moved between folders to optimize content organization.
