I have created in Lightroom Classic a number of Smart Collections. When I launch Lightroom CC I don't see those Smart Collections. Is it possible to see Smart Collections in Lightroom CC or can you only see normal Collections?

Correct answer JP Hess

At this time, it is not possible to sync smart collections with Lightroom CC. It is only possible to sync "regular" or "standard" collections. Whether or not that will change with the next version of Lightroom CC is not known by me.

Not directly, but two people created a plugin that (kind of) does it:

Jeffrey Friedl's Blog » Jeffrey’s “Smart-Collection-Sync” Lightroom Plugin

Any Source Lightroom Plugin

BTW, because Adobe has said that Lightroom Classic won't get any new sync features, it is highly unlikely that this will ever become possible without this workaround.

Smart collections is my most wanted feature.

In my dream world, LRCC 2.0 will be announced at Adobe Max. Smart collectects will be amoung the many new features
