Managing Consent Purposes

This section guides you through adding consent purposes and defining attributes of personal user information that need to be collected and shared by WSO2 Identity Server. The purposes defined through the management console will be used to prompt the user to provide consent during self sign up in WSO2 Identity Server. It can be configured tenant-wise in which case the user will be prompted to provide consent for the purposes and attributes relevant to the user's specific tenant domain. 

  • For more information on how the consent purpose is used within the self registration flow, see Consent Management for Self Sign Up.
  • For definitions on the consent receipt, purposes, and PII categories, expand the section below.
