High energy heavy-ion collisions produce large amounts of light nuclei and hype nuclei, especially at high baryon density around collision energy of several GeV. These light nuclei and hyper nuclei carry the information of nucleon-nucleon and hyperon-nucleon interactions and affect the chemical composition and properties of the collision system. This proceeding is a brief review for the recent measurements on light nuclei collective flow, including directed flow v1, elliptic flow v2, and high order flow coefficients, at finite and high baryon densities from different experiments. The light nuclei production mechanism is discussed based on comparisons of the measurements and model calculations. The first measurement for hyper nuclei v1 at 3 GeV by STAR is also reported, which may imply the hyper nuclei are formed via the coalescence of nucleons and hyperon.
