How to use cookie import in Multilogin
In Multilogin, you can import saved cookie data into one or multiple browser profiles.
➡️ Select the browser profile(s) → right-click → click “Cookies” → “Import cookies” → upload your cookie file or paste the cookie data → confirm the overwrite warning → click “Import”.
Cookie import is available to account owners, managers, and operators on all plans. Imported cookies can restore browser session data, but they don't guarantee that a website will log you in automatically.

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

Why cookie import is useful
- Reuse saved session data: import cookies when you need to continue a browser session in a Multilogin browser profile. Some websites may still require a manual login.
- 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 100 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 browser profile first to update it

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.
