Connection settings
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|

| API key Required | Your PostScript API key used for authentication. |
Note that:
Your PostScript API key must have the following permissions:

Make sure to secure your API key — anyone with access to this key can modify your PostScript subscribers and send events.
Configuration settings

| Consent management settings | Configure the consent management settings for the specified source by choosing the Consent management provider from the dropdown and entering the relevant consent category IDs. See Consent Management in RudderStack for more information on this feature. |
When consent management is enabled, RudderStack only sends events to PostScript when the user has provided appropriate consent.
