Collection View

Learn how to create a Collection View that defines how data is displayed within a collection in Umbraco.

Use a Collection View when you need to:

• Present data in a structured or visual way (for example, table, cards, grid)

• Customize how entity fields are displayed

Before creating a Collection View, make sure you are familiar with the Extension Registry in Umbraco.

Kinds

There are a couple of built-in Collection Views Kinds available in Umbraco, each suited for different display needs. You can also create custom Collection Views if the built-in options do not meet your requirements.

• Card View: Displays entities as cards in a grid layout, suitable for visual content.

• Reference View: Displays entities in a list-style layout.

• Custom View: Create your own Collection View from scratch to meet specific requirements.
