Create a custom collection from another collection

Akto allows you to create a custom collection directly from other collections.

In the demonstration below, we have illustrated the steps to help you create a custom collection from another collection.

Go to API Discovery > API Collection. Go to any collection whose APIs you want to add in the collection and select those APIs. Then click on Add to API Group to open the selection dialog box. Choose any API group from there or create a new one as per your requirements.

NOTE: Adding APIs to a custom collection creates a reference to the original APIs in the custom collection. It does not duplicate them. Thus any changes to the original APIs are automatically reflected in the custom collections.
