Let’s start in order:

This is intended to be used in conjunction with getVariablesInLibraryCollectionAsync

id ≠ key

The argument to this method must be collection.id, not collection.key.

So, you need to follow the following logic:

  1. Get a LibraryVariableCollection;
  2. Get a LibraryVariable;
  3. Import this LibraryVariable by key;
  4. Get a variableCollectionId in imported Variable;
  5. Get a VariableCollection by id.

After completing the fifth step, you will have a VariableCollection object, which you must use in the setExplicitVariableModeForCollection method.

Collection modes will be available in the following path: VariableCollection.modes.
