How do deactivate the internal cookie jar altogether?

Grafana k6 OSS Support

Hi there,

my service sets cookies after authentication and I’d like k6 to completely ignore those cookies.
How can I achieve that?

Hi @emil,
welcome to the community forum :tada:

k6 doesn’t have an explicit feature for clear cookies but as a work-around, you could set a local cookie jar or you could set an empty value for the specific case, as the following code:

export default function() {
  const jar = http.cookieJar();
  jar.set('https://httpbin.org/cookies', 'my_cookie', '')
  http.get('https://httpbin.org/cookies');
}

You can find more details about using cookies on the dedicated documentation page.
