How do you check cookies using Chrome?

I'm testing some cookies that I'm creating via JavaScript. Is there a way to check if the cookie was set in Chrome Developer Tools or something similar?

To check the current page's cookies using Chrome:

Option 1

  1. Open Developer Tools (usually F12)
  2. Click the "Application" tab (used to be "Resources")
  3. Expand the "Cookies" list item
  4. Click any list item.

You can view cookies in detail here, and clear them out (click any list item under cookies then click the cancel icon on the bottom left of the table).

Option 2

Use the javascript console, e.g. document.cookie. Less sophisticated (graphically), but you can work with the data using javascript. Note that the results will be restricted based on how websites are allowed to access local data from other sites (see MDN Same-origin policy).

Option 3

There is also chrome://settings/siteData (was previously settings/cookies). Just put the url into Chrome's address field.

Latest version of Chrome (v52) has moved this functionality to the "Application" tab. So updated steps are:

  1. Open Developer Tools
  2. Click the "Application" tab
  3. Cookies are listed under the "Storage" list item on the left sidebar

Another method is to type the following:

chrome://settings/cookies

in the address bar.

Then use the left click to see more details (content, expiration date, etc.).

In your console, type document.cookie. It will return the active cookies for that page.
