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

Check cookies

Here's how you can view cookies in a browser:

  • For Mimic, paste chrome://settings/content/all into the browser address bar
  • For Stealthfox, paste about:preferences#privacy into the browser address bar, and on the page that opens, select “Cookies” → “Manage data”

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
  • Browser core must be up-to-date – if the import option is missing, launch the profile first to update it

How to import cookies

Want to import the same cookie file to several profiles at a time? Select them using checkboxes on the left and go through the steps below.

 
  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!

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.
