    This tab shows the cookies that were sent to or received from the server by the selected request, as well as cookies that were assigned through JavaScript on the page. An exclamation mark is displayed on the tab if any of the cookies were blocked by the browser.

    Show <number> blocked cookies

    This checkbox is displayed if any cookies were blocked by the browser. Select the checkbox to see these cookies or deselect to hide them.

    The columns displayed are:

    Cookie Name

    The unescaped name of the cookie.

    Direction

    Indicates whether the cookie value was sent or received.

    Blocked

    Displays a list of reasons why the cookie was blocked by the browser.

    Value

    This shows the unescaped value of the cookie.

    JavaScript

    This column shows cookies that were assigned using JavaScript (for example through document.cookie). When source metadata and stack frames are captured, HttpWatch will display a link to the source location where the cookie was set.

    Clicking a source link attempts to open the related script and highlight the cookie assignment. If the required document URL, source line or column was not captured, HttpWatch reports that it cannot navigate to the source.

    If a cookie was not set using JavaScript, this column will be empty.

    Path

    This is the path on the web site to which the cookie applies.

    Domain

    This shows the domain or host name to which this cookie belongs, e.g. .google.com or www.google.com

    Expires

    The date/time when the cookie expires, e.g. Sun, 17-Jan-2038 19:14:07 GMT. The value (Session) indicates that this is a session cookie that will be deleted when the browser is closed.

    SameSite

    Displays the SameSite attribute that can be assigned to cookies to control cross site access.
