Get cookies.txt LOCALLY
Description from store

This extension exports cookies.txt in Netscape or JSON format.
The Netscape cookies.txt format is compatible with wget, curl, MozillaCookieJar(Python3), and more.

Rest assured that this extension never transmits your information externally.
It features an open-source, unobfuscated source code that is readily available for inspection on GitHub or in the extension's installation directory.

We are not related to the developer of the original “Get cookies.txt” which we have been told was malware in the past. This extension provides the equivalent features in a safe, open-source format.

## ⚠️ Caution
If you are using `Google Chrome < 119`, it may not be able to read some cookies with partition keys, because of a bug in the cookies API and partition key.

To function correctly, this extension requires certain permissions, all of which are listed in the source code for transparency.
Specifically, it now needs "Download management" to execute a more appropriate file export method, which was previously achieved through "link generation and automatic clicking" in versions before v0.3.x.

- activeTab: To get the URL of the current active tab.
- cookies: To get and export cookies (not write or send).
- downloads: Only used to export local resources (cookies).
- notifications: To notify updates.
- hosts permissions: To get and export cookies (not write or send).

Opensource at github, works good

Thank you so much for ensuring privacy of users!
Santosh P.S.S.
You saved my day, good Sir. Took me an hour of scratching my head and pulling my hair to download a video about an old southern gentleman talking about how to smoke a cigar. Only way worked was using your extension to export to cookies.txt. Can download corn quicker than this ffs, YouTube.

Works perfectly. especially useful to programmatically use cookies, such as with youtube dlp
Zachary Wiles
Works exactly as intended. **Be warned**: the data this exposes can grant full access to any site you’re logged into. Treat any exports like passwords—store securely and never share them.

Thank god for this plugin.
Amazing Game
it's working, thank you
C.S Kim
it works!!!!
Michael Bladowski
works !!
Jonathan Voss
Works well, and I inspected the installed code to verify that it is indeed only using local browser APIs. Very useful tool.
Safa
Not malware as "cookies.txt" extension *was*. This is unrelated to that. Good stuff!
I like highschool AUs
Came here from yt-dlp . Literally does what it does, exports cookies.txt into a file locally downloaded. Also easy to manage: Click icon, export all cookies, and voila.
Andy
How do I know it's still not malware?
M M Kamalraj
Got redirected here by yt-dlp when trying to download the vids on google colab. Was creating a workflow for extracting audio from the video and then converting to text. Life saver for many.
Ale Guariguata
extremely useful, works with wget
Alan Tassart

It gets the job done.

very good

Wish it would import as well
Kaz Kylheku
Dead on arrival (DOA). Does nothing. I have the button pinned to my Chrome's toolbar. It looks like a half-eaten cookie inscribed in a house shape. When I click on it, nothing happens. No UI comes up like what we see in the above screenshot.
SuperWheeJo
yt-dlp users could simply add "--cookies-from-browser chrome" Arguments, but this works for others as well.

It works for downloading VODs thru "yt-dlp" for paid streaming sites requiring cookies! Thanks!
