Steps
Authenticate with an OAuth2 access token or permanent token that has collections read (and write, if creating/modifying) scope
Call the retrieve-collections endpoint to list existing collections and their IDs/names
Create a new collection via the collections API when you need a fresh curated set, or fetch an existing collection's ID to work with it
Add or remove specific asset IDs from a collection through the corresponding collection-membership endpoints
Re-fetch the collection's asset list periodically (or on a webhook-driven trigger) to keep an external system's mirror of the collection in sync
Known gotchas
Collections are a distinct concept from Brands/folders in Bynder — a collection is a curated cross-cutting list of asset references, not a storage location, so removing an asset from a collection does not delete or move the underlying asset
Collection membership can change frequently and isn't inherently versioned, so syncing integrations should be prepared to reconcile additions and removals rather than assume append-only growth
Permission to view or modify a collection can be scoped separately from general asset read/write permissions, so a token that lists assets fine may still be denied on collections endpoints
