Configure PXP to request a collection from the Catalog API to display its Content. 

## Preconditions

- Create a collection in Purple Hub, fill it with some content, and publish it to Catalog API. 

## Configuration

Create a list with Contents and define the contentContextKey according to the DataSource. 

To get the contents of a collection, use a CollectionContentDataSource. By default, it will make content available in the contextKey `collection-content`.
