Add Cookies
Enable your TaskBot to access your browser cookie session, so that it doesn't have to log in every time it runs in an incognito session.
If you ever log out from the website that you copied cookies from, this will invalidate the cookie session. So if you log out, be sure to re-copy and re-paste your cookies again!
Your cookies may expire over time. Simply copy them again and paste to your TaskBot workflow, as described below.
If you activated Run non-incognito option, cookies will be ignored. To learn how to log in to your accounts while running non-incognito, please review this page: Run Non-Incognito.
Step 1: Copy Cookies
Download this free-of-charge plugin EditThisCookie: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/editthiscookie/fngmhnnpilhplaeedifhccceomclgfbg?hl=en
Click on the puzzle sign on your Chrome bar and pin it, like shown below.
Go to the website for which you need to get cookies. For example, if you are building a TaskBot for LinkedIn, open linkedin.com, make sure you are logged in, click on the EditThisCookie plugin and click on Export button - marked red in the screenshot below. That action will copy your cookies to your clipboard.
Step 2: Paste Cookies to ZeroWork
Now return to your TaskBot builder page, open TaskBot Settings and enter your cookies in the appropriate box. Now you are good to go!
Troubleshooting: TaskBot Cannot Log in with Cookies
In some rare cases, some websites do not accept cookies to be logged in with.
In such case, use building blocks to build a login flow. For example, add the building block Insert Text or Data with your username and password and then add the building block Click Web Element to click on the button "Log in". You can encrypt your password, as described here: Encrypt Content.
