2 Installing Collect
You can install Collect in a workspace by using the functionality available through the Application
Deployment System (ADS). This system provides you with the option to install Collect by selecting it from
the list of existing applications in the Application Library tab or by importing it from an external application
file.
To install Collect, install Collect from the Application Library tab and, if required, enable access for the data
source.
Confirm that you have the appropriate system admin permissions to install an application. For more
information, see Workspace security on the RelativityOne documentation site.
2.1 System requirements for Collect
Collect uses the ADS framework, so you install it as an application within a Relativity instance.
Consequently, Collect has the same system requirements as RelativityOne. For RelativityOne's system
requirements, see System Requirements on the RelativityOne Documentation site.
2.2 Installing Collect
Collect is compatible with RelativityOne. See Getting started in RelativityOne on the Documentation site for
requirements.

3 Matters
In Collect, a matter represents a legal action or case requiring you to collect electronic data from sources
such as Bloomberg. Matters can be used to group multiple related collection jobs.
You manage matters that are associated with a collection. You can create each of these items on their
respective tabs, or you can create them when you add a new collection.
Note: Matters created from Home aren't available for use in Collect nor listed on the Matters tab in this
application. Additionally, the matters created on this tab are only available for use in Collect.
3.1 Creating a matter
Use the following procedure to create a matter that you can associate with a collection:
1. Navigate to the Matters tab. Collect displays a list of the active matters currently available to this
application.
2. Click New Collection Matter.
3. Complete the fields in the Matter Details layout. See Matter Details layout fields below.
4. Click Save. Collect displays the matter details. See Viewing or editing matter details on the next
page.
You can also create a matter when you add a new collection. Click the Add link next to the Matter field in the

4 Custodian targets
In Collect, you manage custodians that have an associated data source. The custodian target is the
combination of a custodian and data source. It is an endpoint from which Collect can connect to and collect
from.
To collect from custodians, entities either have to exist, be created, or be imported in Relativity. The
custodian and their primary email address also needs to be associated to the data source. When the
primary email address field for a custodian is present, Collect will auto-generate the required targets for
each data source while setting up a collection job.
In this document, the source is Bloomberg.
4.1 Custodians
If a custodian does not exist, you can manually create an entity from the Entities tab. Once you create an
entity in the Collect Custodian view and add it to a collect project, it becomes a custodian.
You can add custodians to Collect at different times throughout the collection process. There are different
ways to populate the entity list including using Integration Points, Import/Export, or manually. For more
information, see Integration Points and Import/Export. To manually create a new custodian, follow the steps
below:
1. Navigate to the Entities tab.
2. Click New Entity on the Custodians tab.
3. Select the Collection History layout from the drop-down menu and complete the fields. See Fields
on the next page.
4. Click Save.
Note: When creating a custodian from Legal Hold, the Custodians - Legal Hold View is selected by
default. If Collection or Processing is also installed in the same workspace, you can view the Custodians
- Processing View or Custodians - Collection View accordingly.
Relativity Collect - Bloomberg 12
4.2 Fields
The Collection Custodian layout provides the following fields:
n
Custodian Type—select one of the following:
o
Person—select this to enter first and last name of the individual acting as custodian of the data
you wish to process.
o
Other—select this if the custodian of the data you wish to process is not an individual but is, for
example, just a company name. You can also select this if you wish to enter an individual's full
name without having that name include a comma once you export the data associated with it.
Selecting this changes the Custodian layout to remove the required First Name and Last Name
fields and instead presents a required Full Name field.
n
First Name—the first name of the custodian. This field is only available if you've set the Custodian
Type above to Person.
n
Last Name—the last name of the custodian. This field is only available if you've set the Custodian
Type above to Person.
n
Full Name—the full name of the custodian of the data you wish to process. This field is only available
if you've set the Custodian Type above to Entity. When you enter the full name of an entity, that name
does not contain a comma when you export the data associated with it.
n
Email—the email the custodian uses in the target. This email address must match the email address
within the connected data source.
4.3 Creating a custodian target
You can collect electronic data from custodians who are individuals or entities involved in a legal action or
case. You can collect electronic data for custodians from their computers, external hard drives, network
drives, and other sources. You may perform multiple collections from a single custodian. On the Custodians
tab, you can create and edit custodians as well as view their details, associate them with collections, and
perform other tasks.
Use the following procedure to create a custodian target that you can associate with a collection:
1. Enter the Name of the custodian target.
2. Click Select to select available custodians. If the custodian does not exist, click Add and complete
additional steps.
3. Click the Data Source drop-down menu to select a data source. For more information Collection data
sources, see Data source types on page14.
4. Enter the custodian's email address in the Target field.
Relativity Collect - Bloomberg 13
To avoid duplicate custodians, a custodian with multiple emails, you will need to link a second custodian
target to the same entity. To make a second custodian target for the same entity, you will need to create
another target.
In the target, select the same entity. Then, select the other data source and enter the target value. This way
you can have multiple targets, different from the primary email address, for a single entity record.
4.3.1 Generating targets in the wizard
Custodian Targets can also be automatically generated in Step 4 of the Collect wizard. Click Generate
Targets to check if targets exist for the custodians you've selected for collection. If the targets do not exist,
Collect creates them based on the email address in the Entity details in each custodian. For more
information, see Collection Summary on page21.
If an invalid custodian target is created manually, the auto-generation of custodian targets does not remove
the invalid custodian target. The invalid custodian target needs to be removed manually. Find out if there are
any errored targets in the Collection Summary step or on the Status Summary tab. To delete a custodian
target from the Custodians Targets tab, click the data sources checkbox and use the Delete mass
operation.
4.4 Removing custodian targets
To remove any custodian target, the custodian first needs to be removed from the collection, or collections.
You can use the Mass delete operation to delete collect custodians, also known as entities. For more
information, see the Admin Guide.
Trying to delete a custodian target before removing a custodian will result in an error.
Relativity Collect - Bloomberg 14
5 Data sources
A data source allows you to define where and how you pull data from a communication channel. A data
source stores the configuration necessary to retrieve data from a communication channel, process that
data, and ingest it into Collect.
Set up workspace data sources before beginning collections. Data sources are stores of information from
which you collect data. These data sources have parameters that you can set during the creation of a
collection job.
5.1 Creating a collect data source
The Collection Admin tab is where you create, edit, and remove data sources from your workspace. Setup
only needs to be done once for each data source. You must create your data sources prior to setting up your
custodian targets. For more information, see Custodian targets on page11.
When creating data sources, you can select different types of data sources for obtaining files.
Use the following procedure to create a new Collect source instance:
On the Collect Admin page,
1. Click the New Collection Source Instance button.
2. Enter in a unique name for the data source.
3. Select the type of data source.

8.2.3 Custodians
Complete the Custodians step by assigning custodians to the project. Follow the steps below to assign a
custodian.
1. From the Unselected custodians table, use the column filters to locate custodians.
2. Click a checkbox next to a custodian. Collect supports up to 30 custodians per collection project. If
you need more than 30 custodians, you need to create another collection project.
3.
Click to add select custodians. Click to add all custodians.
4. Click Next.
Note: There is a limit of 10,000 listed custodians with targets in the custodian picker.
8.2.4 Collection Summary
Complete the creation of the collection by reviewing all steps, custodians, data sources, and targets, before
finalizing. If custodian targets were not created before started the project, click Generate Targets. Clicking
Generate Targets will check to see if targets exist for the custodians you have selected for collection. If the
targets do not exist, Collect will automatically create them based on the email address contained in the
Entity record for each custodian.
Relativity Collect - Bloomberg 22
8.2.4.1 Targets
In the Targets section, you will see a number next a custodian's name. The number listed is the number of
custodian targets found in the associated data source. A zero, 0, means Collect did not find any custodian
targets with that email address in that data source. A one means Collect found a single custodian target
associated with the email address within the data source. Any number greater than one means that Collect
found multiple custodian targets with that email address within the data source.
If there is no color highlighting the number, it means Collect already found and generated the custodian
target. If there is a green highlight, Collect autogenerated the custodian target. If there is a red highlight,
Collect could not autogenerated this custodian target. If red, you can still manually generate the custodian
target. For more information, see Creating a custodian target on page12.
Complete the collection setup by clicking View Collection Details. Once you finish creating the collection,
it redirects you to the Collection Details page. From the Collection Details page, you can preview and run
the collection from the Collection Summary on the previous page.
8.3 Identifying Collection data in Staging Explorer
This section helps to identify the components of the folder information within the Staging pane of the Staging
Explorer as it relates to the Collections setup fields.
Use the sample screen below as a general guide for each data source type.
Here is a breakdown of the folder components within the Staging pane of the Staging Explorer:
\\files\<T####>\ProcessingSource\Collections\<WorkspaceID>\<CollectionName>_<ArtifactID>
Relativity Collect - Bloomberg 23
n
The Processing Source Location from the Collections page becomes the file location for the data in
Staging Explorer. It contains a sub-folder for Collections to house the Collection data. Using the
above example, it would be:
\\files\<T####>\ProcessingSource\Collections
n
The Workspace ID folder in the Staging pane corresponds to the Workspace ID number listed after
the “AppID=” in the URL. For example, 1187585 would be the Workspace ID from this URL: kcur-
a.relativity.one/Relativity/RelativityInternal.aspx?AppID=1187585&ArtifactTypeID…...
\\files\<T####>\ProcessingSource\Collections\1187585
n
The Name of the Collection from the Collections page becomes the folder name within the Work-
space ID folder. Using the above example, it would be:
\\files\<T####>\ProcessingSource\Collections\1187585\<CollectionsName>
n
The Artifact ID from the Collections page under Custodian Details is the data source ID. Using the
above example, it would be:
\\files\<T####>\Pro-
cessingSource\Collections\<WorkspaceID>\<CollectionName>_<ArtifactID>
In the case of grouped collections, such as Teams and Slack, there will be a folder within the
Artifact ID folder corresponding to the data source type. Using Teams as an example, the file
structure will be:
\\files\<T####>\Pro-
cessingSource\Collections\<WorkspaceID>\<CollectionName>_<Arti-
factID>\Teams

When Relativity collects the data, Relativity accepts the path names and file names that the source
provides. On occasion, the collection source modifies the path name or file name.
There is a difference between viewing grouped and individual collections data. To view grouped collections
data, for sources like Bloomberg Chat, Google Chat, Slack, Teams, click the Get Results link to view your
collection data. Although the Data Sources table will show N/A in the Collected Items and Collected Item
Total columns, the collected data is still available in the download. These columns show N/A because more
than one set of custodian data is included in the collection.

9.3.1.6 Reports
Collect includes comprehensive reporting capabilities that you can use to view information about your
collections. You can generate these reports in the collection console within a collection project. Click on the
name of a report to download. When generating a report, Relativity downloads different files through your
browser. For more information on specific reports, see Reports on the next page.
Relativity Collect - Bloomberg 28
10 Reports
Collect offers comprehensive reporting capabilities that you can use to view information about collections.
You can set options to generate these reports based on matter and collection as well as other combinations.
Note: If you've developed and used a new data source plugin using the Collection API, the Targeted
Collection Activity Report reports on the new data source or sources accordingly.
10.1 Running reports
You can generate these reports in the collection console within a collection project. Click on the name of a
report to download. Locate the Collection Summary and Collection Details report in the collection console.
Locate the Results and Error report in the Data Sources table on the Collection Details page.
When generating a report, Relativity downloads different files through your browser.
10.1.1 Collection Summary report
The Collection Summary report includes the target, target status, number of items collected, and the
collection size. The report is grouped by custodians. Grouping by custodians makes it easy to sort the
targets for each custodian with subtotals for each custodian. Grand totals are at the end of the report. The
report downloads as a PDFfile.
This report also includes filters that were used at any point in the collection. For example, if a modification
date that is greater than or equal to 1/1/2010 is added at the criteria level, then that filter is listed in the
summary report table. If no filter criteria was specified for the job, the report lists a "No Filter Criteria Applied"
message.
Group-type data sources are also included in the list of data sources. This section is at the beginning of the
report. For example, if you collect from Outlook calendars, Outlook mailboxes, and Slack, all collection
summaries are included in the report.
The short message grouped collections lists the custodians involved in the collect, along with the data
sources. The top of the report includes the custodian list. This section's title is "Short Message Grouped
Collections." The report table includes the data source, target status, the number of items collected, and the
collection size in gigabytes.
10.1.2 Collection Details report
The Collection Details report includes two files: the first file includes the successfully collected results of all
items and their metadata. The second file includes the errored collection data. The error file includes as
many of the items and as much of the items' metadata as it can. The report downloads as a CSVfile.
This report, both files, is also stored in the assigned Entra ID file share. It is included in the collection output.
10.1.3 Results report
The Results report link for each target downloads as a CSVor XML file that contains a list of all individual
items collected. These items include emails, files, or other data. It contains all of the associated metadata
for each item. If no items were collected the file is empty.
The Results report is a CSV file download of the results collected from Bloomberg, Box, iManage, Microsoft,
Refinitiv Ikon, Slack, or X1 targets.
Relativity Collect - Bloomberg 29
10.1.4 Errors report
A Comma Separated Values file download of the errors that occurred during the collection from the target. If
no errors occurred, the file is empty.
If the application is reporting errors with requests, creating objects, or parsing, check for correct
permissions, check for healthy connections, and check if the fileshare is working. If the setup is correct, start
diagnosing errors.
10.1.4.1 Errors.csv
The report file lists one error per line. Each item is listed with an error ID alongside the message of the error
that caused the item failure. Per-item errors only occur in the download phase of the collection; if an error
occurs before (for example, if data is unavailable during our check) or after (for example, the worker cannot
write the results.csv file to the fileshare) then there will be no record in the errors.csv report.

11 Status Summary
In Collect, you manage multiple collect jobs and you need to track all of them.
11.1 Job status
The job status dashboard to see the statuses of collection jobs. You can drill into each job from this
dashboard. Able to look into the targets by custodian, data sources, or status to find out more about your
collections. Focus on the collected components with this dashboard.
11.2 Reviewing job statuses
The job status dashboard is available after generating targets. To learn how to generate targets for a
collection, see Collection Summary on page21. Once you generate targets, the dashboard organizes by
collection jobs.
Status:
n
Not started—the collection is set up, but hasn't been started.
n
Started—the collection started and has not completed.
n
Completed—the collection of the target completed without any errors.
n
Completed with Errors—the collection of the target completed and had individual items that couldn't
be collected. For more information, see the Errors report on the previous page.
n
Error—the collection did not run successfully and couldn't collect from the target.

13 Monitor
Monitor pending, running, and completed collect jobs in the Monitor tab. The Monitor page only tracks
collect jobs from the last 24-hour time range.
The queued column lists the created collect jobs that have not started. The running column lists collect jobs
in progress and with their current progress displayed in a status bar. The completed column lists collect jobs
completed successfully, completed with errors, the amount of data collected, and the elapsed time.
Relativity Collect - Bloomberg 33
14 Collect Store
Large volumes of raw collected evidence can be stored in the staging area instead of being processed right
away. Migrating collected data to storage before processing or review reduces consumption of physical
space and reduces RelativityOne resources during an upgrade.
When wanting to store collected data, select the Store option as the processing source location as the
collection output in the Collect Details step of the Collect wizard. For more information, see Using the
Collect wizard on page19.
14.1 Moving collected data into storage
When creating a collection job, you have to select a Processing Source Location. The Store option is
available in the Processing Source Location drop-down menu within the first step of the Collect Wizard. For
more information on the Processing Source Location, see Using the Collect wizard on page19.
14.2 Exporting collected data
When it is necessary to export the data, the user needs to use the RelativityOne Staging Explorer to export
the collected data located in Store. For more information, see RelativityOne Staging Explorer on the
RelativityOne documentation site.
Before using the RelativityOne Staging Explorer, the data can be containerized in a compressed folder if
option is selected so the metadata of the collection does not change when it is exported.
