Get Cookie by Name

To get a cookie by name using Selenium for Java, call manage().getCookieNamed() on the WebDriver object and pass the name of the cookie as argument to the getCookieNamed() method.

The following is a simple code snippet to get the cookie by name “GeoIP”.

</>
Copy
driver.manage().getCookieNamed("GeoIP")

where driver is a WebDriver object.

This expression returns a Cookie object.

Example

In the following program, we write Selenium Java code to visit Wikipedia Home Page, and get the Cookie named GeoIP.

Java Program

</>
Copy
import org.openqa.selenium.*;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

public class MyAppTest {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "/usr/local/bin/chromedriver");
		WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

		try {
			driver.get("https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page");
			//get cookie by name
			Cookie cookie = driver.manage().getCookieNamed("GeoIP");
			System.out.println(cookie);
		} finally {
			driver.quit();
		}
	}
}

Output

GeoIP=IN:TG:Hyderabad:19.00:99.99:v4; path=/; domain=.wikipedia.org;secure;
