Wrapper for [`Graph.get_collection()`](https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/Graph#get_collection) using the default graph.

    tf.compat.v1.get_collection(
        key, scope=None
    )

See [`tf.Graph.get_collection`](https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.13/api_docs/python/tf/Graph#get_collection)
for more details.

<br />

| ## Args ||
|---|---|
| `key` | The key for the collection. For example, the `GraphKeys` class contains many standard names for collections. |
| `scope` | (Optional.) If supplied, the resulting list is filtered to include only items whose `name` attribute matches using `re.match`. Items without a `name` attribute are never returned if a scope is supplied and the choice or `re.match` means that a `scope` without special tokens filters by prefix. |

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

| ## Returns ||
|---|---|
| The list of values in the collection with the given `name`, or an empty list if no value has been added to that collection. The list contains the values in the order under which they were collected. ||

<br />

<br />

## eager compatibility

<br />

Collections are not supported when eager execution is enabled.
