::: tip Private collections
If a collection is listed in [`privateCollections`](/getting-started/configuration),
`getRecord`, `getRecords`, and [`searchRecords`](/api/search) return a 404 for
it — indistinguishable from a collection that doesn't exist — and
`describeCollections` omits it from its list. The collection is still indexed
and still queryable from your own feeds and XRPC handlers; this only stops
hatk from serving it on your behalf through these generic endpoints.
