Creating a Collection

Collections are used to organize data sets and provide a small amount of contextual information about the group of data sets. 

1. Begin by opening the RDS administrative portal and using the plus button at the bottom right. 
   
   
2. This will bring up the Add Collection dialogue box. Fill out the collection information. 
   
   
3. Select finish. This will bring up a summary to review the information that was entered. 
   
   
4. Select create. The collection will be added to the catalog and users can now add data sources to it.
