Collections serve as the primary way to categorize and display products across [online stores](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/online-store), [sales channels](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/sales-channels), and marketing campaigns. There are two types of collections: * **[Custom (manual) collections](https://help.shopify.com/manual/products/collections/manual-shopify-collection)**: You specify the products to include in a collection. * **[Smart (automated) collections](https://help.shopify.com/manual/products/collections/automated-collections)**: You define rules, and products matching those rules are automatically included in the collection. The `Collection` object provides information to: * Organize products by category, season, or promotion. * Automate product grouping using rules (for example, by tag, type, or price). * Configure product sorting and display order (for example, alphabetical, best-selling, price, or manual). * Manage collection visibility and publication across sales channels. * Add rich descriptions, images, and metadata to enhance discovery. *** Note Collections are unpublished by default. To make them available to customers, use the [`publishablePublish`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/publishablePublish) mutation after creation. *** Collections can be displayed in a store with Shopify's theme system through [Liquid templates](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/themes/architecture/templates/collection) and can be customized with [template suffixes](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/themes/architecture/templates/alternate-templates) for unique layouts. They also support advanced features like translated content, resource feedback, and contextual publication for location-based catalogs.

Products are the goods and services that merchants offer to customers. They can include various details such as title, description, price, images, and options such as size or color. You can use [product variants](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/objects/productvariant) to create or update different versions of the same product. You can also add or update product [media](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/interfaces/media). Products can be organized by grouping them into a [collection](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/objects/collection).
