Collections

Create, archive, and organize HTTP jobs into folders.

Overview

Collections group related tasks. Think of them as folders: Billing, Data sync, Customer emails. They do not run on a schedule by themselves — only the tasks inside them do.

Create a collection

  1. Sign in and open Collections from the sidebar (/collections).
  2. Click New Collection (or the create action shown in the empty state).
  3. Enter a name that your team will recognize later.
  4. Save. The collection appears in the list.

You can create many collections; plan limits focus on tasks, not how many folders you use (current catalog allows up to 100 collections).

Open and manage tasks

  1. Click a collection to open /collections/view?id={collectionId}.
  2. From this page, create, edit, enable, disable, or delete tasks.
  3. Click a task to open its execution history (…&taskId={taskId}).

All task work happens on the collection view. There is no standalone /tasks route.

Archive, restore, delete

  1. Archive — hide a collection you are not using without deleting its configuration. Archived collections do not schedule work.
  2. Restore — bring an archived collection back when you need it again.
  3. Delete — permanently remove the collection (and its tasks) when you no longer need them.

Prefer archive when you might reuse the same jobs later.

Tips

  • One collection per product or environment keeps the schedule calendar readable.
  • Name collections after outcomes (Nightly reconcile), not temporary experiments.
  • After you create tasks, connect integrations once at the account level — they apply across collections.
