Creating and Assigning Pattern Hub Collections<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>By default, when you generate an access key, it gives access to <strong>all<\/strong> Pattern Hub items. But sometimes, you might want to give access to just a specific group of patterns; this is where <strong>Collections<\/strong> come into play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A <strong>Collection<\/strong> is like a tag you can apply to any Pattern Hub Item or Page Item. Once items are grouped into Collections, you can choose which ones to include when creating an access key. This gives you the flexibility to share just the right content with the right keys.<br><br>To get started, go to your WordPress Dashboard and navigate to the <strong>Pattern Hub \u2192 Collections<\/strong> page.
