# Create a collection

This article describes how to create a collection using the Cerby mobile app to organize your accounts and secrets.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Who can use this feature?**

* Workspace **Owners**, **Super Admins**, **Admins**, **Users**, and **Guest Users**
* Not available to **Login-Only** users
* Supported using the Cerby mobile app
  {% endhint %}

As a user with any workspace role in Cerby, except **Login-Only** users, you can create a collection directly from the Cerby mobile app to group your accounts and secrets so you can manage and share them together.

## Requirements

This procedure requires the following:

* A Cerby workspace.
* The Cerby mobile app installed on your device and you're logged in.

## Create a collection

To create a collection, you must complete the following steps:

1. Open the Cerby mobile app on your mobile device.
2. Log in to your Cerby workspace.
3. Tap the **Add** button in the bottom navigation bar. The **Select a category** screen is displayed with a list of options.
4. Select the **Collection** option from the list. The **New collection** screen is displayed.
5. Enter a name for the collection in the **Collection name** field. The name must be between two and 1,024 characters long and can't contain emoji.
6. Tap **Create**. The collection is created, and its details screen is displayed with the **Add items** screen opened automatically.

{% hint style="info" %}
**NOTE:** Use a descriptive name so you can find the collection later. You can add accounts and secrets to the collection right away from the **Add items** screen, or later from the collection's details screen.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
**CAUTION:** If Cerby can't create the collection, for example due to a network issue, an error message is displayed and the collection isn't created. Correct the issue and tap **Create** again.
{% endhint %}

Now you are done.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.cerby.com/cerby-mobile-app/collections/managing-your-collections/create-a-collection.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
