Cross Device Consent Sharing (Session Restore)

Premium Feature

Cross-Device Consent Sharing is a Premium Feature that is only enabled on request. Please reach out to your Customer Success Manager for more information.

Overview

This feature is a specialized tool designed for a specific use case: retrieving user consents that were previously granted on a different device. This feature is ideal for scenarios where users switch between devices, such as moving from a web interface to a smartphone.

Use Cases

  • User Switching Devices: A user grants consent on a web application and later accesses the mobile app. Using 'Restore User Session', the consents are carried over, eliminating the need for re-consent on the mobile app.
  • Login Process: Integrate the 'Restore User Session' feature during the user login routine to seamlessly transition consents across different sessions or platforms.

Implementation

The user session can be restored by providing the SettingsID (key that defines your configuration) and the ControllerID (encrypted key which contains consent details). This key can be retrieved by copying it from the corresponding CMP.
