Collections
Collections Overview
What collections are and how they work.
Collections
A collection is a namespace for your data. It defines what kind of records you're storing and what fields they have. QANATIX is collection-agnostic — you create any collection for any industry.
How it works
- You upload data to a collection name
- QANATIX creates the collection automatically on first upload
- You search within that collection
Each collection gets its own search indexes. Collections are scoped to your tenant — other tenants can't see or access your collections.
Built-in vs custom
QANATIX ships with no built-in collections. Every collection is created by you. This means:
- No assumptions about your data structure
- No industry-specific code in the engine
- Full control over field names and types
- Same search quality regardless of domain
