**Manage metric collections**

Learn how to create metric collections, add metrics, and manage access in Confidence.

[Metric collections](/docs/capabilities/metrics/metric-collections.md) let you group related metrics into
shared, team-visible lists. This guide covers creating collections, managing their contents,
and configuring permissions.

**4. Save the collection**

Click **Create** to save the collection.
