Bulk Domain Management FAQ

Using Cookie Consent, you can configure your CMP script to load across multiple websites by leveraging Bulk Domain Management.

What is Bulk Domain Management?

Bulk Domain Management allows you to deploy a single script across several domains by creating a domain group. A domain group is a collection of domains to which the main domain script applies. The main script functions and writes consent to the domains contained in the domain group. Consent is written individually per domain.

Use Case: You may wish to leverage domain groups if you have a business where the tracking technology template across a large number of domain properties is the same or similar. Because of the number of domain properties, the number of domain scripts and association with domains among different teams can become hard to manage. Using Bulk Domain Management, you are able to associate a list of domain properties with a singular domain script, making it easy to deploy and manage changes across all the domains.

What are key points to consider before using Bulk Domain Management?

  • The domain that is used as the parent of the domain group should be scanned in the OneTrust tenant. Since the script is only specific to the parent domain, the cookie list will only include cookies from the parent domain scan.

  • If you display the cookie list on the preference center, this list populates from the main domain’s scan.

  • If you use Auto-Blocking, the sources of the will be limited to those found in the main domain's scan.

  • Templates and geolocation rules will be inherited from the parent domain. Domain level branding is not possible.

  • Dashboard metrics will be combined and displayed under the parent domain.

  • If a domain needs to be removed from the group and implemented separately, you can scan the domain as a different website in the OneTrust environment and implement it.

  • Bulk Domain Management is not compatible with Download to Local.
