The Role of Cookie Import

Cookies are small data files used by websites to record your information, such as keeping you logged in or tracking your browsing habits. In Multilogin, importing cookies can help you appear as a returning user rather than a new one. This is very useful for managing multiple accounts, testing, or pre-warming profiles. Using the built-in cookie import tool, you can easily import cookie data into any profile—no extensions or external tools are needed.

How to View Cookies in a Browser

The methods to view cookies in your browser are as follows:

  • For Mimic, paste chrome://settings/content/all into the browser address bar
chrome://settings/content/all
  • For Stealthfox, paste about:preferences#privacy into the browser address bar, then on the opened page select "Cookies" → "Manage Data"
about:preferences#privacy

Why Cookie Importing Is Useful

  • Skip the login step: Access the website immediately without entering credentials
  • Build trust: Make your profile appear more 'established' on the website

What are the limitations

To ensure your import goes smoothly:

  • The file size must be less than 10 MB
  • The format must be JSON – check using a JSON validator
  • The Agent must be connected – check the status in the bottom right corner
  • The browser core must be up to date – if the import option is missing, start the profile to update first

How to Import Cookies

Want to import the same cookie file into multiple profiles at once? Please use the checkboxes on the left to select them, and then follow these steps:

  • Right-click on the profile in the profile list
  • Click "Cookies" → "Import Cookies"
  • In the pop-up window, you can: upload a file with cookies (JSON format), or directly paste the cookies as text

  • Directly paste the cookies as text
  • Check "I understand that importing cookies for the same site will overwrite existing cookies"
  • Click "Import" – Done!

Frequently Asked Questions

What will happen if I import cookies for a website that already has cookies?

The new cookie will overwrite the existing cookie – so it can only be done if you agree!

Can I import cookies into the local configuration file?

Yes – but the premise is that the browser core of the profile is up-to-date and the agent is connected.

What should I do if my file cannot be uploaded?

Carefully check the file size (less than 100 MB) and format (valid JSON). Also, make sure the configuration file is up to date.
