You will have following option when generating a new container version.
Option | Description |
Comment | You can provide a comment to document the changes of the new banner version (e.g. change text of accept button). |
Reactivate privacy | In case you check this option all visitors of the website will be re-asked for consent, they will again see the banner when visiting the website the next time. |
You can preview and test new banner versions by clicking the TEST option on the right site of the banner version in the banner version list. This will preview the banner on a demo website.
It is recommended to test new banner on a test environment of the real website before deploying it.
The deployment process of a new banner version varies depending on the selected hosting method of the privacy banner. You can select the hosting method of a banner in the privacy banner settings that can be accessed with the gear icon on the top left of the interface (beside the privacy banner name).
