    Use cURL with cookies from Chrome

  • browser_cookie3

    This is a fork of browser_cookie

  • Feel like you can just read Chrome's cookie from the file (and filter out the ones you need by site, of course) so you don't need to bother run chrome in debugging mode?

    Like https://github.com/borisbabic/browser_cookie3

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • pycookiecheat

    Borrow cookies from your browser's authenticated session for use in Python scripts.

  • Thanks for the link. I know yt-dlp does, but from your link I found another library (https://github.com/n8henrie/pycookiecheat) that can do that and it seems more popular than browser_cookie3. (browser_cookie3 works totally fine last time I tried).

  • playwright-python

    Python version of the Playwright testing and automation library.

  • Using the tools at hand is often the best approach. That said, I've spent most of the last 13 years of my career automating browsers. For years, I used Selenium with a variety of libraries. After switching to Puppeteer/Playwright, I have zero interest in going back lol. Playwright actually has first party Python support. (Puppeteer has a port called Pyppeteer, but it's no longer maintained and the author recommends using Playwright)

  • me-want-cookies

    :rocket: Chrome Extension to export all accessible cookies of the current Tab

  • I've had kind of the same problem in the past. For me I built a cookiejar textfile generating chrome extension, because it turns out most relevant tracking or session cookies are on external domains or oauth provider domains. [1]
