# transientCollectionList(withCollectionsFetchResult:title:)

Creates a temporary collection list containing the asset collections in the specified fetch result.

```
class func transientCollectionList(withCollectionsFetchResult fetchResult: PHFetchResult<PHCollection>, title: String?) -> PHCollectionList
```

## Parameters

`fetchResult`

A fetch result that contains one or more [`PHAssetCollection`](/documentation/Photos/PHAssetCollection) objects.

`title`

A name for the new temporary collection list.

## Return Value

A new collection list.

## Discussion

Transient collection lists are not saved to local storage or iCloud and do not appear in the Photos application or other apps using the Photos framework. A transient collection can be useful if you’ve designed a UI for displaying the contents of a collection list and want to display an arbitrary set of collections.
