The authentication cookies ARE present in the browser (as shown in dev tools), but Playwright isn't capturing them properly. Is this a common issue with how Playwright handles cookie contexts?
The Problem:
In dev tools, one can see auth cookies
But in the saved cookies, we only get:
GAESA, _dd_s (non-auth cookies)
Cloudflare cookies (cf_clearance, __cf_bm)
Any way out ?
The underlying/background problem is that Playwright does not connect to the already opened/running browser under a certain port but rather opens a new browser thus missing existing context, cookies:
for i, (port, path, name) in enumerate(zip(config["ports"], config["paths"], config["names"])):
# Create server thread
server_thread = threading.Thread(target=run_server, args=(port, path))
servers.append(server_thread)
# Create browser automation thread
browser_url = f"ws://localhost:{port}/{path}"
browser_thread = threading.Thread(
target=automate_browser,
args=(browser_url, name)
)
browser_automations.append(browser_thread)
