This key defines which Schemas are available to populate files in this Collection.
Defining a Schema for a collection will add it to the + Add button dropdown at the top right of the Collection browser.
If undefined, clicking the + Add button to add a new file to a Collection will clone the last file in the Collection and clear any markup content and the values of any structured data keys.

Examples
In this example, the + Add button in the Collection browser has an option for Customer Story which will populate a new file in the blog Collection with the contents of the customer_story.mdx file. If the Schema file is updated, CloudCannon will preserve the old inputs to prevent you from losing structured data in older files.
