FAQPage Schema
How do I import browser cookies into a headless session for QA testing?▼

To import browser cookies into a headless session, you use an interactive domain-picker to select and apply cookies from your real browser. This enables authenticated QA testing without manual login steps.

What browsers can I import cookies from for headless browsing?▼

You can import cookies from multiple Chromium-based browsers, specifically Comet, Chrome, Arc, Brave, and Edge. The cookie picker decrypts and loads these locally without exposing the values.

Do I need a local gstack workflow to set up the cookie picker?▼

Yes, you need a local gstack workflow with a browser-detection binary. You must run a one-time setup step to build the interactive picker before you can import desired domains.

Why are my headless browsing tests failing authentication?▼

Headless browsing tests fail authentication because they lack existing login sessions. Importing cookies from a real browser into the headless session resolves this by securely decrypting and applying them locally.
