**Summary:** This article describes how to create a finding collection.

Users have the option to create two types of collections: filter-based collections or Group By-based collections. You can create a collection either on the Host Findings page or the Application Findings page.

To create a collection, you must first apply a filter. If you want to create a collection based on a Group By, you must also apply a Group By in addition to a filter.
