## Class: Cookies
> Query and modify a session's cookies.
Process: [Main](../glossary.md#main-process)<br />
_This class is not exported from the `'electron'` module. It is only available as a return value of other methods in the Electron API._
Instances of the `Cookies` class are accessed by using `cookies` property of
a `Session`.
For example:
```javascript
const { session } = require('electron')
// Query all cookies.
session.defaultSession.cookies.get({})
.then((cookies) => {
console.log(cookies)
}).catch((error) => {
console.log(error)
})
// Query all cookies associated with a specific url.
session.defaultSession.cookies.get({ url: 'http://www.github.com' })
.then((cookies) => {
console.log(cookies)
}).catch((error) => {
console.log(error)
})
// Set a cookie with the given cookie data;
// may overwrite equivalent cookies if they exist.
const cookie = { url: 'http://www.github.com', name: 'dummy_name', value: 'dummy' }
session.defaultSession.cookies.set(cookie)
.then(() => {
// success
}, (error) => {
console.error(error)
})
```

* `cause` string - The cause of the change with one of the following values:
* `explicit` - The cookie was changed directly by a consumer's action.
* `overwrite` - The cookie was automatically removed due to an insert
operation that overwrote it.
* `expired` - The cookie was automatically removed as it expired.
* `evicted` - The cookie was automatically evicted during garbage collection.

expired.
### Instance Methods
The following methods are available on instances of `Cookies`:

Sends a request to get all cookies matching `filter`, and resolves a promise with
the response.
