Why are cookies not being returned in my RequestsCookieJar?
Why are cookies not being returned in my RequestsCookieJar?
I'm trying to use python to login to a local website and run some API tests. That means that when we do a POST to log in it should re-use the cookies the server sent so latter requests are correctly authenticated.
POST
However, despite the Set-Cookie header being returned the cookie jar is empty. As a newbie to Python I can't figure out what I am doing wrong.
Set-Cookie
>>> import requests
>>> session = requests.session()
>>> response = session.post("http://localhost:46551/login", 'Email':'dev', 'Password':'1234')
>>> print(response)
<Response [200]>
>>> print(response.cookies)
<RequestsCookieJar>
>>> response.headers
'Cache-Control': 'no-cache', 'Pragma': 'no-cache', 'Content-Type': 'application/json; charset=utf-8', 'Expires': '-1', 'Server': 'Microsoft-IIS/10.0', 'UnAuthenticatedUser': 'true', 'X-AspNet-Version': '4.0.30319', 'Set-Cookie': 'Fuze=SOME-VALUE-HERE; domain=localhost; expires=Wed, 12-Sep-2018 15:05:22 GMT; path=/; HttpOnly, profile=29; domain=localhost; path=/; HttpOnly', 'X-SourceFiles': '=?UTF-8?B?QzpcY29kZVx3b3JrXGNhcmVzdGFja1xDYXJlU3RhY2suVW5pZmllZC5tc2hhcGlyb1xDYXJlU3RhY2suQmFja2VuZFxDYXJlU3RhY2suV2ViXGxvZ2lu?=', 'X-Powered-By': 'ASP.NET', 'Date': 'Wed, 12 Sep 2018 14:29:22 GMT', 'Content-Length': '42'
>>> len(response.cookies)
0
The important cookie in that example is the Fuze cookie which has the session token. The expiration is correctly 30 minutes from the time of the request.
Fuze
Am I doing something wrong or is this application sending a weird cookie back that Python can't handle?
