browser_delete_cookies

browser_delete_cookies

Delete cookies from the browser context. Can delete all cookies, cookies for a specific URL, or a specific cookie by name. Useful for testing login flows or clearing session state.

When to use browser_delete_cookies

Use browser_delete_cookies when you need to read, set, or clear cookies to manage session state. It is part of Owl Browser's Cookie Management toolset and runs inside a self-hosted, source-level stealth engine, so every call inherits the same undetectable browser fingerprint as the rest of your automation — no separate anti-detect setup required.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does browser_delete_cookies do?

Delete cookies from the browser context. Can delete all cookies, cookies for a specific URL, or a specific cookie by name. Useful for testing login flows or clearing session state. It belongs to Owl Browser's Cookie Management category and is available through the REST API, the Python SDK (browser.delete_cookies()), the Node.js SDK, and the MCP server.

What parameters does browser_delete_cookies accept?

browser_delete_cookies accepts 1 required parameter (context_id) and 2 optional parameters. All parameters are sent as JSON in a POST request to /api/execute/browser_delete_cookies.

Is browser_delete_cookies detectable by anti-bot systems like Cloudflare or DataDome?

No. browser_delete_cookies executes inside Owl Browser's Chromium engine, which applies fingerprint spoofing at the C++ source level rather than through JavaScript patches. Every tool call shares the same consistent, human-like fingerprint, so anti-bot systems such as Cloudflare, DataDome, and Akamai see an ordinary browser.

Related Tools

browser_get_cookies

Retrieve all cookies from the browser context with full details including httpOnly, secure, sameSite, domain, path, and expiration. Optionally filter by URL to get only relevant cookies.

browser_set_cookie

Set a cookie in the browser context with full control over all attributes. Supports domain, path, secure, httpOnly, sameSite, and expiration settings. Useful for injecting session tokens or test cookies.

browser_update_profile_cookies

Update the profile file with the current cookies from the browser. Call after login to persist session cookies. Only updates cookies, preserving other profile settings.

http_session_get_cookies

Get all cookies stored in a session. Optionally filter by URL to get only cookies that would be sent to a specific domain. Returns cookies as a JSON array with domain, name, value, path, expiry, secure, and httponly fields.

http_session_set_cookies

Import cookies into a session. Accepts either a JSON array of cookie objects with domain, name, value, path fields, or Netscape cookie format lines. Useful for importing cookies from browser contexts (browser_get_cookies) into HTTP sessions for non-DOM operations.

browser_create_context

Create a new isolated browser context with its own cookies, storage, and optional proxy configuration. Each context acts as an independent browser session. Use this to create multiple isolated browsing sessions, configure proxy/Tor connections, load browser profiles with saved fingerprints, and enable/disable LLM features. Returns a context_id to use with other browser tools.
