To fetch all collections in a single pass, to eg. display them in a frontend template, a loop must be used:
{def $count=fetch( 'content', 'collected_info_count',
hash( 'object_id', $node.contentobject_id ) )}
{def $collection}
{for 0 to $count as $collectionid}
{set $collection=fetch( 'content', 'collected_info_collection',
hash( 'object_id', $node.contentobject_id,
'collection_id', $collectionid ) ) }
{* admin might have deleted this collection! *}
{if $collection}
{section var=collectedAttributes loop=$collection.attributes}
...
{section}
{/if}
{/for}
