Understanding Consent Management in Marketing Cloud
Consent management is a critical aspect of Marketing Cloud, and understanding how it works is essential for ingesting consent information from Salesforce CRM to Data Cloud. The Communication Subscription Consent DMO is used to store consent information, and the Privacy Consent Status widget is used to display this information on the contact record page.
Root Cause of the Issue
The root cause of the issue is that the consent information is not being synced from Data Cloud to Salesforce CRM. The Subscription Widget on the contact record page shows data from Data Cloud, not from the Salesforce CRM core object.
Fixing the Issue
To fix the issue, you need to manually create a sync from Data Cloud to Salesforce CRM. This can be done by using the Data Cloud APIs to query the MessagingConsentV2 DLO and then creating a corresponding record in the Salesforce CRM core object.

SELECT * FROM MessagingConsentV2
Heads up: Make sure to handle any errors that may occur during the sync process.
