How do I create a vault collection?

Create a Resources, Recipes, or Workouts collection, then edit, duplicate, or delete it from your collections list.

Verified Sep 12, 2026Web + coach app

Vault collections are what you curate from your library — plus your recipes and workouts — into a browsable experience for clients. A collection is shared as one unit, so sharing it gives a client access to everything inside it.

Collections are managed on the web dashboard.

Find a collection in your list

The collections list shows each collection's type, assigned clients, item count, section count, and last-updated date, 10 per page, with a text search over the list.

Edit a collection's settings

Click the collection's row, or its row menu and then Edit, to open the editor. Click the pencil next to the collection name to change the name, description, or cover photo. The type is locked, with a notice in the form saying so.

Duplicate a collection

From the collections list row menu, choose Duplicate.

The copy is named with "(Copy)" appended, keeps the same sections and items, and starts with no clients — share it separately. The copy references the same underlying items rather than cloning them, so editing a resource changes it in both the original and the duplicate.

Delete a collection

Delete from the row menu, or tick the checkboxes on several collections and use the bulk Delete bar.

Legacy collections

Collections created before sections existed show a Legacy pill in your list. They hold a single flat list of resources and open in a simpler editor where you can add and remove resources and add and remove clients.

The legacy editor shows a notice recommending you delete the collection and rebuild it as a new one — new collections are always created in the sectioned format, with sections, layouts, and tag filtering. Clients see legacy collections grouped under their Resource collections, in a simpler view.

Quick answers

Why can't I select my new collection when sharing to a client?

An empty collection can't be selected in the client-profile, onboarding-flow, or automation pickers. Add at least one item to it first. The collection editor's own Add clients button doesn't have this rule.
