Best Way to Nest Collections

Looking for the best way to nest collection (or use some other method).

I need some way of relating CollectionA -> CollectionB.

CollectionA is a group of CollectionB. CollectionB should hold items that are grouped by some field in CollectionA.

I'm trying to generate a dropdown on the backend that a user can select a group from CollectionA, which will add CollectionB items to CollectionA's respective field item key.

Sorry if the explanation is hard to understand, let me know if you have further questions.

Hi Conner

You need relationships in your life – more over here: https://docs.grabaperch.com/runway/relationships/

Note that you should only relate one way and you should also take care choosing which fields in your collections get indexed. Collections make your databases grow!

Hope this helps,

Jon
