Get Collection Members

The Get Collection Members object will create a list of the current members of a collection. Configuring the Get Collection Members object is similar to listing the members of a collection using the SMS Administrator Console.

Note: The Opalis Client and Action Server user accounts must have sufficient rights to view programs, collections, and packages as well as create advertisements.
