determining, by the network data analytics function network element, the first type identifier based on configuration information and a second data type identifier, wherein the configuration information indicates a correspondence between the first type identifier and the second data type identifier.
9 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the third network element is an application function (AF) network element.
10 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first request further comprises at least one of a first user object or a first use time.
11 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first use purpose comprises data analytics or exposure to a third party application function.
12 . A communication apparatus, comprising:
a memory, wherein the memory comprises computer-readable instructions; and
a processor that communicates with the memory, wherein the processor is configured to execute the computer-readable instructions, to enable the communication apparatus to:
receive a second request from a third network element, wherein the second request is for requesting to obtain user-related data;
send a first request to a unified data management network element based on the second request, wherein the first request is for requesting authorization information of the user-related data corresponding to an analytics identifier, wherein the first request comprises user information and a first use purpose for the user-related data, and wherein the analytics identifier identifies a type of analytics performed based on the user-related data; and
receive a first response from the unified data management network element, wherein the first response comprises the authorization information, and the authorization information indicates whether a user corresponding to the user information allows the user-related data to be used for the first use purpose.
13 . The communication apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the first request further comprises at least one of a first user object or a first use time.
14 . The communication apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the first use purpose comprises data analytics or exposure to a third party application function.
15 . The communication apparatus according to claim 12 ,
wherein the user-related data comprises one or more of first data or second data related to the user;
wherein the first data comprises data corresponding to the user generated by at least one of a terminal device, an application server, or a network device; and
wherein the second data comprises a data analysis result obtained by performing data analysis based on the first data.
16 . The communication apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the second request comprises the user information and a third use purpose, wherein the processor is further configured to execute the computer-readable instructions to enable the communication apparatus to:
obtain the first use purpose based on the third use purpose.
