onetrust_publishers_native_cmp 6.22.0

Add the OneTrust native CMP to your Flutter project.

OTPublishersNativeSDK

Expose OneTrust's Native CMP platform to your Flutter project.

Getting Started

Versioning

The SDK version used must match the version of the JSON published from your OneTrust instance. For example, if you’ve published version 6.10.0 of the JSON in your OneTrust environment, you must use the Flutter plugin version 6.10.0 as well. It is recommended to specify a version to avoid automatic updates, as a OneTrust publish is required when you update your SDK version.

To install the OneTrust plugin, run flutter pub add onetrust_publishers_native_cmp

Specify a version in your pubspec.yaml file, for example:

dependencies:
  onetrust_publishers_native_cmp: '6.10.0'

After adding the plugin to your Flutter project, build the project to check for any immediate errors.

This plugin pulls the OneTrust SDK from mavenCentral and Cocoapods.

Notes

OTPublishersNativeSDK supports a minimum iOS version of 11.0. You may have to specify a platform target in your podfile:

platform :ios, '11.0'

In Android, the underlying Native SDK requires a FragmentActivity in order to render a UI. In your Android MainActivity.java file, ensure that the MainActivity class is extending FlutterFragmentActivity.

public class MainActivity extends FlutterFragmentActivity {
}

Usage

Initialization

Initialize OneTrust to fetch the data configured in your OneTrust tenant. This will make one or two network calls (depending on the type of template) and deliver a JSON object that contains all of the information required to render a banner and preference center.

The init call is an async function that returns a boolean status value; true if the initialization and download of data was successful, false if not.

Future<void> initOneTrust() async{
    bool status;
    Map<String, String> params = { //Params are not required
      "countryCode":"US",
      "regionCode":"CA"
    }
    try{
      status = await OTPublishersNativeSDK.startSDK("cdn.cookielaw.org","dec6b152-4ad9-487b-8e5a-24a06298417f","en", params);
    } on PlatformException{
      print("Error communicating with platform-side code");
    }

    if (!mounted) return;

    setState(() {
      _cmpDownloadStatus = status ? 'Success!':'Error';
    });

  }

Arguments

Name	Type	Description
storageLocation	String	[Required] The CDN location for the JSON that the SDK fetches. (Usually, but not always, cdn.cookielaw.org.)
domainIdentifier	String	[Required] The Application guid (retrieved from OneTrust Admin console)
languageCode	String	[Required] 2-digit ISO language code used to return content in a specific langauge. Note: Any language code format which is not listed in OneTrust environment will be considered as invalid input. Note: If the languageCode passed by your application is valid, but does not match with a language configuration for your template, then the SDK will return content in the default language configured in OneTrust environment (usually, but not always, English).
params	Map<String, String>	Parameter map (see below for accepted values)

Initialization Parameters

All initialization parameters are expected to be of type String, and all are optional.

Name	Type	Description
countryCode	String	2-digit ISO country code that will override OneTrust's geolocation service for locating the user. Typically used for QA to test other regions, or if your application knows the user's location applicable for consent purposes.
regionCode	String	2-digit ISO region code that will overide OneTrust's geolocation service.
androidUXParams	String	A stringified representation of the OTUXParams JSON object to override styling in-app. See "Android - Custom Styling with UXParams JSON" below.

Show an Interface

The plugin can load a Banner or a Preference center using the methods below:

OTPublishersNativeSDK.showBannerUI(); //load Banner
OTPublishersNativeSDK.showPreferenceCenterUI(); //load Preference Center

To determine if a banner should be shown (based on the template rendered and the status of the user's current consent,) use the shouldShowBanner() method. This returns a bool indicating whether or not a banner should be shown.

bool _shouldShowBanner;
try{
      _shouldShowBanner = await OTPublishersNativeSDK.shouldShowBanner();
    } on PlatformException{
      print("Error communicating with platform-side code");
    }
    if(_shouldShowBanner){
      OTPublishersNativeSDK.showBannerUI();
    }

App Tracking Transparency

A pre-permission prompt can be displayed before the App Tracking Transparency prompt is surfaced on iOS 14+.

 OTATTrackingAuthorizationStatus authStatus = await OTPublishersNativeSDK.showConsentUI(OTDevicePermission.idfa);

This method will not resolve until the user has made a selection within the native iOS App Tracking Transparency prompt.

This method takes an argument of type OTDevicePermission, which is provided as an enum for ease of use. It returns an OTATTrackingAuthorizationStatus.

The current status of App Tracking Transparency can be obtained by calling

OTATTrackingAuthorizationStatus authStatus = await OTPublishersNativeSDK.getATTrackingAuthorizationStatus();

Both of the above methods return an OTATTTrackingAuthorizationStatus which is namespaced as such to avoid issues with other ATT plugins being used. For unsupported OS versions (all Android versions and iOS versions < 14,) this function will immediately return platformNotSupported. Possible values of the enum are

• notDetermined
• restricted
• denied
• authorized
• platformNotSupported

Android - Custom Styling with UXParams JSON

OneTrust allows you to add custom styling to your preference center by passing in style JSON in a certain format. Build out your JSON by following the guide in the OneTrust Developer Portal.

Pass the JSON as a string into the startSDK function's params argument.

  String AndroidUXParams = await DefaultAssetBundle.of(context)
        .loadString("assets/AndroidUXParams.json");
    Map<String, String> params = {
      "androidUXParams": AndroidUXParams
    };
    try {
      status = await OTPublishersNativeSDK.startSDK(
          "cdn.cookielaw.org", appId, "en", params);
    } on PlatformException {
      print("Error communicating with platform code");
    }

iOS - Custom Styling with UXParams Plist

Custom styling can be added to your iOS Cordova application by using a .plist file in the iOS platform code. In addition to adding the .plist file (which can be obtained from the OneTrust Demo Application) to your bundle, there are a few changes that need to be made in the platform code, outlined below. Review the guide in the OneTrust Developer Portal.

In AppDelegate.swift, import OTPublishersHeadlessSDK. Add an extension below the class to handle the protocol methods:

import OTPublishersHeadlessSDK
...
extension AppDelegate: UIConfigurator{
    func shouldUseCustomUIConfig() -> Bool {
        return true
    }
    
    func customUIConfigFilePath() -> String? {
        return Bundle.main.path(forResource: "OTSDK-UIConfig-iOS", ofType: "plist")
    }
}

In the didFinishLaunchingWithOptions protocol method, assign the AppDelegate as the UIConfigurator:

@objc class AppDelegate: FlutterAppDelegate {
  override func application(
    _ application: UIApplication,
    didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?
  ) -> Bool {
    OTPublishersHeadlessSDK.shared.uiConfigurator = self //add this line only
    GeneratedPluginRegistrant.register(with: self)
    return super.application(application, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: launchOptions)
  }
}

Listening for UI Changes

The plugin implements an EventChannel that opens a BroadcastStream with the platform-side code. To listen for changes in the ui.

Note that:

• The BroadcastStream will stay open until it is closed by calling .cancel() on it
• Only one BroadcastStream per EventChannel can be open at a single time. Therefore, you must call .cancel() on this stream before calling .listenForUIInteractions().listen again.

var interactionListener = OTPublishersNativeSDK.listenForUIInteractions().listen((event) {
      print(event);
      });

Expected return:

{
    'uiEvent':String,
    'payload':Object
}

When Consent Changes

The consent status is returned as an integer value:

Status	Description
1	Consent given
0	Consent not given
-1	Consent not gathered or SDK not initialized

Query for Consent

To get the present consent state for a category, you can query for consent:

Future<void> getConsentStatus() async{
    int status;
    try{
      status = await OTPublishersNativeSDK.getConsentStatusForCategory("C0002");
    } on PlatformException{
      print("Error communicating with platform-side code.");
    }
    print("Queried Status for C0002 is = "+status.toString());
  }

Listen for Consent Changes

The plugin implements an EventChannel that opens a BroadcastStream with the platform-side code. To listen for changes to the consent state.

Note that:

• The BroadcastStream will stay open until it is closed by calling .cancel() on it
• Only one BroadcastStream per EventChannel can be open at a single time. Therefore, you must call .cancel() on this stream before calling .listenForConsentChanges().listen again.

var consentListener = OTPublishersNativeSDK.listenForConsentChanges(["C0002","C0003"]).listen((event) {
      setCategoryState(event['categoryId'], event['consentStatus']);
      print("New status for "+event['categoryId']+" is "+event['consentStatus'].toString());
    });

    //consentListener.cancel() //cancel listener

This listener accepts an array of strings containing Category IDs to listen for. The listener returns an object:

{
    'categoryId':String
    'consentStatus':int
}

Get OneTrust-set Data Subject Identifier

OneTrust sets a GUID to identify the user for audit purposes. The identifier can be used to look up the user's consent history in the OneTrust Consent module. To surface the identifier:

String id = await OTPublishersNativeSDK.getCachedIdentifier();
