Consent handling

Throughout last week, we’ve been working on an update to make DevEx of FeaturesFlow even better. Our SDKs now give you full control over user consent when capturing data for A/B testing.

With this update, our SDKs expose an option to set enableCapturing parameter. Setting it to false will prevent the SDK from sending any events to FeaturesFlow. The SDK will temporarily store the events in a buffer and will flush them once consent is given. Let's take a look at some code examples. In here we are using our Typescript SDK to create an instance of FeaturesFlowClient. As you can see we are passing capturingEnabled to the config object.

Now, our SDK won't send any events to FeaturesFlow. We can then call a enableCapturing() function from the client to send all batched events to our services.

All events triggered after calling enableCapturing function, will be sent to FeaturesFlow immediately, without batching them. If u wanted to take a look at some more code, here are docs for our SDKs: - Typescript - React
