What cookie import does

Cookies are tiny data files that websites use to remember you – like keeping you logged in or tracking your browsing habits. In Multilogin, importing cookies helps you look like a returning user instead of someone brand new. This is super useful for multi-accounting, testing, or warming up profiles.

With the built-in cookie import tool, you can easily upload cookie data into any profile – no extensions or external tools needed.

How to view cookies in a browser

Why cookie import is useful

• Skip login steps: instantly access sites without entering credentials
• Build trust: make your profile appear more “aged” to websites

What are the limitations

To make sure your import works smoothly:

• File size must be under 10 MB
• Format must be JSON – use a JSON validator to double-check
• Agent must be connected – look for the status in the bottom-right corner
• Browser core must be up-to-date – if the import option is missing, launch the profile first to update it

How to import cookies

1. Right-click a profile in your profile list
2. Click “Cookies” → “Import cookies”

3. In the pop-up window, either:
   1. Upload a file with cookies (JSON format), or
   2. Paste cookies as text directly
4. Tick the box “I understand that importing cookies for the same website will overwrite existing ones”
5. Click “Import” – done!

Pro tips

• Use cookies from trusted sources to avoid sketchy sessions
• Combine cookie import with proxies for more realistic browsing behavior
• After importing, launch the profile and visit the site to confirm cookies were applied

FAQs

What happens if I import cookies for a site that already has cookies?

The new cookies will overwrite the existing ones – so only do this if you’re okay with that!

Can I import cookies into a local profile?

Yes – but only if the profile’s browser core is up-to-date and the agent is connected.

What if my file won’t upload?

Double-check the file size (under 100 MB) and format (valid JSON). Also, make sure the profile is updated.
