These guidelines provide examples for how to implement the authorisation flow where a consent has been amended.
Overview
In accordance with CDR Rule 4.22A(1), if a data holder has received a notice under rule 4.18C or 4.20S, the data holder must invite the CDR consumer to amend the authorisation to disclose CDR data accordingly.
The amending authorisation standards apply when a data holder invites a CDR consumer to amend a current authorisation as per rule 4.22A and the accredited data recipient has supplied a cdr_arrangement_id.
The guidelines in this section provide examples of how to implement these amending authorisation requirements.
Wireframes and guidelines
Note: The wireframes shown are examples of how to implement key rules, standards, and guidelines. Use the on-screen functions to adjust zoom level or expand the wireframes to be viewed at full screen.
Default example
The following wireframes show a basic example of the amending authorisation process. Variations can be found in the below sections.
Multiple customer profiles
The following wireframes show an example of the amending authorisation flow when a consumer has multiple customer profiles.
Layout variation
The following wireframes show an alternate example for the amending authorisation flow.
Unavailable accounts
The following wireframes show an example for unavailable accounts. An account may be considered unavailable for various reasons. Unavailable accounts may include eligible accounts that can’t be shared — for example, to prevent financial harm or because the account user doesn’t have sharing rights.
Unavailable accounts may also include ineligible accounts, or accounts that are not captured under the required consumer data rules. Data holders may show these accounts as unavailable to reduce confusion, such as where a consumer expects to see certain accounts, but cannot select them as they’re not eligible to be shared. While certain account or product types are excluded from the required consumer data rules, data holders may choose to share these accounts voluntarily.
