Collection forms are the backbone of creator product curation. A collection form combines the products a creator curated together with extra questions you want answered about that collection or drop. Use collection-level questions for data that belongs to the whole curated collection, such as the collection title, description, theme, seasonal angle, featured media, or campaign story. Use product forms for per-product notes, ratings, reviews, UGC, or “why I love this” copy. Collection forms can appear inside onboarding forms or custom forms. They can also render product forms when the creator adds products.
