# CollectionDialog Class Reference

`from PyKDE4.akonadi import *`

Inherits: KDialog → QDialog → QWidget → QObject
Namespace: Akonadi

## Detailed Description

A collection selection dialog.

Provides a dialog that lists collections that are available on the Akonadi storage and allows the selection of one or multiple collections.

The list of shown collections can be filtered by mime type and access rights. Note that mime types are not enabled by default, so setMimeTypeFilter() must be called to enable the desired mime types.

Example:

     using namespace Akonadi;

     // Show the user a dialog to select a writable collection of contacts
     CollectionDialog dlg( this );
     dlg.setMimeTypeFilter( QStringList() << KABC.Addressee.mimeType() );
     dlg.setAccessRightsFilter( Collection.CanCreateItem );
     dlg.setDescription( i18n( "Select an address book for saving:" ) );

     if ( dlg.exec() ) {
       const Collection collection = dlg.selectedCollection();
       ...
     }
