Smilewanted bid adapter: gvlid is missing

[MaxSmileWanted]

Hello PrebidJS Community,

I've encountered an issue related to the recent changes in TCF v2.2 consent handling in Prebid.js since the version 8.11.0.

Context:

• I've been testing the changes after this pull request.
• I've ensured that I've given consent, but not legitimate interest.
• Despite this, my adapter (smilewanted) is not being called.
• I receive the following warning in the console when enabling PrebidJS logs: WARNING: Activity control: TCF2 denied 'fetchBids' for 'bidder.smilewanted'.

Consent String TCF v2.2 Configuration:

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Load the latest PrebidJS Version (after 8.11.0)
2. Enable PrebidJS logs.
3. Load a page with the smilewanted adapter and the above TCF v2.2 configuration.
4. Observe the warning in the console.

Expected Behavior:

The smilewanted adapter should be called as consent has been provided.

Actual Behavior:

The smilewanted adapter is not being called, and the mentioned warning appears in the console.

Additional Information:

• This issue seems to be related to the changes in how Prebid.js handles TCF v2.2 consent and legitimate interest, especially for Purpose 2.
• Other adapters, like Smart Adserver, are working as expected.
• I've reached out to a representative from IAB Europe regarding this issue, and here's their response:

The pull request indicated in the email appears to ensure that the receiving Vendor has established legitimate interest for purpose 2 prior to being allowed into an auction. This consists in verifying that Legitimate Interest signals are set to 1 for both purpose 2 (in the PurposesLITransparency) and for the receiving Vendor (in the Vendor Legitimate Interest Section).
As you are relying on consent for purpose 2, you may want to verify with Prebid that having obtained consent for purpose 2 is also ok to be allowed into an auction.

I would appreciate any insights or suggestions on how to resolve this issue. Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Best regards,
Max

You don't have a gvlid defined in your adapter; please pr your adapter to add your id, 639

Oh ok thank you, I will submit a PR to modify that.

Is it related to the fact that we have been marked "No" to TCF-EU Support? : https://docs.prebid.org/dev-docs/bidders/smilewanted.html

Without a gvlid your adapter would never have vendor consent nor vendor LI (in Prebid's eyes). Before that PR neither was necessary IF the CMP reported purpose 2 LI, which is pretty common. Adding a gvlid should fix this.
