# Collections and Scopes

> Fully supported in Couchbase Server 7.x 

The Collections feature in Couchbase Server is fully implemented in the 3.2 API version of the Couchbase SDK.

Information on _Collections_ can be found in the [server docs](#7.1@server:learn:data/scopes-and-collections.adoc).

## [](#using-collections-scopes)Using Collections & Scopes

Access a non-default collection, in the default scope, with:

```java
Unresolved include directive in modules/concept-docs/pages/collections.adoc - include::example$CollectionsExample.java[]
```

And for a non-default scope:

```java
Unresolved include directive in modules/concept-docs/pages/collections.adoc - include::example$CollectionsExample.java[]
```
