# Importing cookies

Importing Cookies into an Incogniton Profile

{% embed url="<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeZvCoT92x8>" %}

Cookies [exported from an Incogniton profile](/cookie-management/exporting-cookies.md), or collected outside the app entirely, can be loaded directly into any profile. It's the faster path when a profile needs an established history before going live on an account.

Follow these steps to import cookies into a profile:

### Open Import cookies

Right-click the profile you want to import cookies into, go to **Browser Management**, and select **Import Cookies**.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Add and save cookies

Under **Cookie Format**, select the format that matches your cookie data. The available options include **JSON**, **Netscape**, **Base64 JSON**, and **Base64 Netscape**.

{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

A successful cookie(s) import notification means the cookies are live in the profile and take effect the next time you start a session.
