Get Collection

Get Collection
You can get a Collection by making making a HTTP GET request to the /collections/COLLECTION_ID endpoint (where COLLECTION_ID is the id of the Collection you wish to get).
BlueCart API will return all information about the Collection, including whether it is currently running and how many Requests and Results Sets the Collection currently has.
Note that the Collection Get endpoint just returns counts of the number of Requests and Result Sets the Collection contains. If you wish to retrieve the actual Requests or Result Sets in the Collection you should use the List Requests and List Result Sets endpoints.
