maybe you could expand and reword your post? I have no idea what you mean and since no one has answered yet maybe I’m not the only one.

Nice, thank for your answer!  
Can I get all deck’s names from the user collection?

If you’re asking about add-on development, you can use the `all_names_and_ids` function accessible through `mw.col.decks.all_names_and_ids`

See [https://github.com/ankitects/anki/blob/410987f0a6dacc32d9029e7801a1141b0e6ea434/pylib/anki/decks.py#L133](https://github.com/ankitects/anki/blob/410987f0a6dacc32d9029e7801a1141b0e6ea434/pylib/anki/decks.py#L133)
