Auto Populate Collections
As previously mentioned, Kobo doesnt read series data due to using old epub metadata standards and hopefully sometime int he future they move to the epub v3 metadata standards to read series information.

I am trying to have my "collection" column to be same as my "series" field.
Is there a way I can somehow make collection field = series field automatically as part of a add/update workflow?

hmm perhaps, Kobo does read the new v3 metadata now...saw this solution also, which is actually better as less duplicate meta data.https://www.reddit.com/r/Calibre/com...te_folders_to/

Unless you use KoReader, Kobo doesn't do directories.

Kobo does read the series info, but you must set the metadata to Automatic management in Calibre and connect your Kobo again after transferring the books.
