Consent Manager

After a certain period, bank customers may need to view, update, or revoke consents they have granted to Accredited Data Recipient applications to access account data. Consent Manager is an application in WSO2 Open Banking that supports all these requirements and manages consents.

Note

Bank officers with the CustomerCareOfficerRole role and bank customers can access the Consent Manager.
Customer Care Officers have privileges such as Advanced Search options and the ability to view the consents of all bank customers.

Configuring servers¶

Open the <IS_HOME>/repository/conf/deployment.toml file and update access control configurations for the consentmgr resource as follows:
```
[[resource.access_control]]
context = "(.*)/consentmgr(.*)"
secure="false"
http_method="GET,DELETE"
```

Open the <APIM_HOME>/repository/conf/deployment.toml file and add the following gateway executor configurations for the Consent flow:

[[open_banking.gateway.openbanking_gateway_executors.type]]
name = "Consent"
[[open_banking.gateway.openbanking_gateway_executors.type.executors]]
name = "com.wso2.openbanking.accelerator.gateway.executor.impl.selfcare.portal.UserPermissionValidationExecutor"
priority = 1

Restart the Identity Server and API Manager servers respectively.

Creating users and roles¶

Follow Configuring users and roles and do the following:

Create a user and assign the CustomerCareOfficerRole role.
Create 2 other users and assign them only the Internal/subscriber role.
