I am using cookie like this with no result ```client get myEndpoint cookie name = JSESSIONID value = uLOgaxWu7uF4tic5sBrXkBzvxB rDWScF fTDvB6Mj4F243gvhdo 128011973 ``` I am doing something wrong

Seems correct The following code works as expected ```val client = HttpClient CIO val r = client get lt String gt <https httpbin org get> cookie name = JSESSIONID value = uLOgaxWu7uF4tic5sBrXkBzvxB rDWScF fTDvB6Mj4F243gvhdo 128011973 println r ``` How do you check the result

< Aleksei Tirman JB > I have a clear status of the issue I am dealing with now If I set ```install HttpCookies storage = AcceptAllCookiesStorage ``` then all my custom cookies are being ignored If I remove that then everything plays well The thing is that I need to initially read the cookie from an API call and the AcceptAllCookiesStorage declaration seems to me that is necessary

Aleksei Tirman [JB] · Answer

< ptsiogas> seems like this behavior is wrong Cookies are removed because of I ve created an issue to address this problem
