Description

The design will be changed to have the client retrieve the collection index directly. This way we will avoid needing to support user authentication in the Collection Manager (since there will not be any endpoints called by the client).

Research direction

Start by locating the endpoint that retrieves collection indexes and trace how the client currently calls it. Review the Collection Manager authentication paths, then confirm the endpoint is removed and that the client retrieves the collection index directly without requiring that authentication.
