Consent APIs
Overview
This API has been available since 1.7.0
A FusionAuth Consent is a definition of a permission that can be given to a User. At a minimum a consent has a name, and defines the minimum age of self-consent. A consent can then be granted to a User from a family member or optionally a User may self-consent if they meet the minimum age defined by the consent.
The first API allows you to create, delete, update and retrieve a consent. The FusionAuth Consent is the object that defines the consent, the values, minimum ages, etc.

Update a Consent
This API is used to update an existing Consent.
You must specify the Id of the Consent you are updating on the URI.
You must specify all of the properties of the Consent when calling this API with the PUT
HTTP method. When used with PUT
, this API doesn’t merge the existing Consent and your new data. It replaces the existing Consent with your new data.
Utilize the PATCH
HTTP method to send specific changes to merge into an existing Consent.
Request
Update the Consent with the given Id
PUT /api/consent/{consentId}
PATCH /api/consent/{consentId}
Available since 1.39.0
When using the PATCH method, you can either use the same request body documentation that is provided for the PUT request for backward compatibility. Or you may use either JSON Patch/RFC 6902 or JSON Merge Patch/RFC 7396. See the
PATCH
documentation for more information.Available since 1.12.0
When using the PATCH method, use the same request body documentation that is provided for the PUT request. The PATCH method will merge the provided request parameters into the existing object, this means all parameters are optional when using the PATCH method and you only provide the values you want changed. A
null
value can be used to remove a value. Patching anArray
will result in all values from the new list being appended to the existing list, this is a known limitation to the current implementation of PATCH.

This API is used to update a consent. Once consent has been granted to a User, only the values and status may be modified.
Request
Update a User Consent with given Id
PUT /api/user/consent/{userConsentId}
PATCH /api/user/consent/{userConsentId}
Available since 1.39.0
When using the PATCH method, you can either use the same request body documentation that is provided for the PUT request for backward compatibility. Or you may use either JSON Patch/RFC 6902 or JSON Merge Patch/RFC 7396. See the

When using the PATCH method, use the same request body documentation that is provided for the PUT request. The PATCH method will merge the provided request parameters into the existing object, this means all parameters are optional when using the PATCH method and you only provide the values you want changed. A
null
value can be used to remove a value. Patching anArray
will result in all values from the new list being appended to the existing list, this is a known limitation to the current implementation of PATCH.
