The Collection Details page allows anyone who owns a [collection](/acquia-dam/what-are-collections "What are collections?") to complete various tasks. You can:

*   View assets in the collection, and [share](/acquia-dam/how-do-i-create-collections "How do I create collections?"), [watch](How-do-I-watch-assets), and display the collection in search results
*   Edit the [collection's share page](/acquia-dam/how-do-i-create-collection-share-pages "How do I create collection share pages?") to show or publish the share page's URL and obtain an embed code for the share page
*   Copy the external collection share page URL and embed code
*   View dates the collection was created and modified
*   Edit the collection's title and description
*   Select four previews from the collection to display in search results
*   View the history of when assets have been added and removed, when the collection was made global, and when previews were selected
*   View the history of who the collection has been shared with

Edit a collection on the [Collections page](/acquia-dam/what-can-i-do-collections-page "What can I do on the Collections page?") to get to the Collection Details page or click Collection Details for a global collection in search results.

Select, change, and add previews
--------------------------------

Up to four assets from a global, shared, or personal collection can be selected as previews for the collection from the Collection Details page. The four previews will display for the collection in search results.

Change a preview by editing a collection on the Collections page. To add an asset as a preview, click Add as Preview. Click Remove as Preview to delete an asset as a preview. If four assets are selected as previews, you must remove one preview before another is added.  
  
For [spotlight collections](/acquia-dam/how-do-i-create-spotlight-collections "How do I create spotlight collections?"), one of the previews selected can be set as the spotlight preview for the collection on the dashboard.

Watch assets in collections
---------------------------

You can watch all current assets in a collection and assets added to the collection in the future by clicking the eye icon below the collection previews on the Collection Details page.  
  
You can choose to “unwatch” assets in a collection by deselecting the eye icon on the Collection Details page; however, currently watched assets remain watched, and assets added to the collection in the future will not be watched.
