A group of datasets with role-based permissions applying to all datasets within the Collaboration. That is, a Collaboration may have owners, editors, viewers etc. Collaboration is useful to share dataset with other users.
You can add a dataset to a collaboration from the dataset info page, by clicking on the "Add to collaboration" button and selecting the desired collaboration.
Similarly, you can remove a dataset from a collaboration by clicking the "Remove from this collaboration button.
Note: To move a datset from one collaboration to another, you can remove it from its current collaboration and add it to the desired collaboration.
Collaborations currently are the entity that define permissions and all the datasets stored inside Collaborations will be groupable into collections (that inherit all permissions).
Sharing and Permissions
Permissions are decided at the Collaboration and dataset level.
All datasets added to a Collaboration have at least the permissions associated with the Collaboration but the owners of the dataset or Collaboration may add further permissions. (i.e., you can share a dataset to someone who does not have Collaboration permissions).
It is not possible to revoke permissions for a single dataset if they are granted by the Collaboration without removing the dataset from the Collaboration.
On schemas below, you can find a resume of actions allowed or not depending on the ownership type at Datasets or Collaborations level.
