Impact of location list changes

The location list allows you to edit the name of countries you operate in and/or have business dealings alongside. When a change is made to the display name of the country, there is some impact to the requests associated with that country. Below is a list of the Privacy Rights Automation functionality that will be impacted:

Request Queue and Request Details

The Request Queue will show the updated location name after the feature is enabled in the tenant.

Web Form Builder, Visibility Rules, and Automation Rules

Web Form Builder, Visibility Rules and Automation Rules for both seeded and custom country fields will display the most recently configured location name.

Data Subject Portal and Emails

The Data Subject Portal and emails will reflect the latest location list configurations for all the requests in the Portal.

Published Web Forms

Published web forms will require republication to reflect the changes made to the location list country names.

API

API calls will reflect any location list updates.

Reports and Dashboards

If a location list country is renamed, requests submitted after the update will display the updated name. All requests prior to update will display the original name.

If a location list country is removed, any request submitted before the update will display the original name.
