Cookie value in browser console differs from the one obtained in code.

[aryab42]

cookies = list(browser_cookie3.load(domain_name = ".google.com"))
main_cookie = [cookie for cookie in cookies if cookie.name == "__Secure-1PSID"][0]

This is the code and the cookie value obtained in browser console differs entirely from the one obtained via code

Hi,
This may happen for two reasons:

1. The exact cookie exists in multiple browsers:

I see you are using the load function. The function loads cookies from all available browsers in your system into a single CookieJar. Thus if the exact cookie say __Secure-1PSID exists on two browsers say chrome and firefox another will replace one. I suggest using the function for the browser you are trying to load from to avoid it. For example for Chrome use:

cookies = list(browser_cookie3.chrome(domain_name = ".google.com"))

2. To cookie is recently updated in the browser:

Another scenario (although less likely) is that the cookie is very new and hasn't been updated on the disk yet. As browser-cookie3 reads cookies from disk. It is unable to produce the latest cookie.

Hope this helps.
