Create Collections

Create collections from the Password Manager web app or Admin Console. Your ability to create collections depends on your role and your organization's collection management settings.

To create a collection:

  1. Log in to the Bitwarden web app, select the New button, and choose Collection from the dropdown:

    Create new collection

  2. In the New collection panel:

    • Give your collection a Name.

    • Choose the Organization it should belong to.

    • Optionally, select a collection to nest this collection under. Collections can be nested to logically organize them for display purposes only.

  3. In the Access tab, assign access to any existing members or groups. For each selection, assign the appropriate level of permission. As the creator of the collection, you will have the Manage collection permission.

  4. Select Save to finish creating your collection.

The External Id field is only relevant if you are using Directory Connector and will be visible in the dialogue when configured using SCIM, Directory Connector, or the API.
