To add a new cookie for the domain, click on the Add Cookie button. A pre-generated cookie string according to the HTTP State Management standards will be created, but you can edit it using the text input that appears below it. Clicking the Save button will save it to the app’s cookie store under the relevant domain.

Adding a domain

If you want to add a cookie for a domain that isn’t present in the domain list, you can add one by entering the hostname (without the port or the http://) in the input box at the top. Clicking the Add button will add it to the domain list. You can then add cookies for this domain by selecting it, and entering a new cookie value as described above.
