A customer wants DAM users to have the ability to share a group of assets...

Definition of Collections in AEM:

Public Collections: These are collections that any user can access and view.

Smart Collections: These are dynamic collections based on predefined search criteria. They automatically update as new assets matching the criteria are added to the DAM.

Lightbox Collections: These are temporary collections used to group assets quickly for a specific task or review.

Static Collections: These collections consist of a fixed set of assets manually selected by the user.

Requirement Analysis:

The customer wants DAM users to share a group of assets based on search criteria.

This means the collection should automatically include any new assets that match the search criteria without manual updates.

Solution Explanation:

Smart Collections: These collections fulfill the requirement as they are based on search criteria and dynamically include assets that match those criteria. Users can share these collections with other DAM users, ensuring that any updates to the assets based on the criteria are reflected in real-time.
