postCustomConsent

Certain use cases may require your organization to change an end-user's consent profile outside the Sourcepoint first layer and privacy manager messages. The postCustomConsent command can be used to edit an end-user's consent profile by changing the opt-in status for consented vendors, categories (purposes), and legitimate interest categories (purposes).

💡
Use Case
Apply vendor-specific consent experiences to handle social media plugins. Or apply consent because an end-user accepts the website's T&Cs or a contract provided by a publisher or advertiser.

Command

function callback_fn(data, success) {
    // your custom callback code can be included here
    console.log(data, success)
}

// call postCustomConsent command to update consents
__tcfapi('postCustomConsent', 2, callback_fn, [vendorIds], [purposeIds], [legitimateInterestPurposeIds] );

Parameter	Type	Description
vendorIds	string	List of vendor IDs that will be consented to by end-user
purposeIds	string	List of purpose IDs who use consent as a legal basis that will be consented to by end-user. Comma delimited.
legitimateInterestPurposeIds	string	List of purpose IDs who use legitimate interest as a legal basis that will be opted-into by end-user. Comma delimited.

📘
You will need to consent to both vendors and purposes. Consenting to a vendor only does not include the purposes.

Implement `postCustomConsent`

In order to implement the postCustomConsent command on your website property, you will need to:

Implement a button or link on your website property with an element ID. The suggested element ID is "postCustomConsent".
Create a function that executes the postCustomConsent command with purposes and vendors that will be consented to when triggered.
Use the document.getElementbyId method to return the button or link ID and call your function for an onclick event.

<!--Create modal with a button--> 
<div id="myModal" class="modal"> 
  <div class="modal-content"> 
    <p>Give consent to X, Y, Z vendors and purposes.</p>
    <button id="postCustomConsent">Give consent to X Y Z</button>
  </div>
</div>

<script>
  document.getElementById("postCustomConsent").onclick = function() {myFunction()}
  
  function callback_fn(data, success) {
    // your custom callback code can be included here
      console.log(data);
      console.log("postCustomConsent was successful: " + success)
      }

  // function that executes postCustomConsent command
  function myFunction() {
    __tcfapi('postCustomConsent', 2, callback_fn, [vendorIds], [purposeIds], [legitimateInterestPurposeIds] )
  }
</script>
