How to get Cookie from browser

**Michel_Morelli** · July 14, 2017, 1:34pm

Hi, in flowxo is there a way/method to get the cookie from browser ?
My user is logged into my backend site and I don’t want to ask him “name, surname, email, etc etc”.

Thanks.

Hi Michel,

Using the API for the web messenger you are able to pass in metadata into the chat bot. However, unless you explicity send information into the bot with the API then nothing can be passed across from the parent page.

Sorry but I have not understand. I know that I can send metadata from a flow to another but I have not understand if I can get a cookie from browser and how.

This thread might prove useful. there’s a discussion how to pass information to the web bot using the Web Messenger API

This should provide a solution to pass information from your page into the bot (just pass through information in metadata).

Hope that helps !
