_satellite.setCookie(cookiename, value, days)

Hi,

I would to set cookie using _satellite.setCookie(cookiename, value, days) but if you see the parameters, we have an option to expire it in days. On the other hand, I want to expire the cookie when user session ends. Is there any way to achieve this?

Thanks in Advance !

      Hello sanketd28​ ,_satellite.setCookie("helloCookie", "test", 0);

      From old memory, I think if you give a 0 value, or no value at all, the cookie will expire after the session.

      Such as :

      _satellite.setCookie("helloCookie", "test", 0);

      or


      _satellite.setCookie("helloCookie2", "test2");

      I did this a long time ago , you should still test it ! Dev tools (F12) in chrome or firefox, give you the expiration of all your cookies !

      Cheers !

        I know that this is a bit of an old post, but in case anyone searches for this and finds this post, it's worth noting that the _satellite.setCooke/readCooke/deleteCookie functions are not supported in Adobe Launch. So, you will run into problems when migrating there if you use these functions.
