Now we have saved the session id in Postman. Note: You can refer Environment and Variables tutorial to learn more about variables. This will get the session id cookie and send it as a global variable whose key is session ID and the value is the value of the cookie.

How to share Session ID Cookie with another request?įor passing the session id to another request, we have to follow two steps namely After the user logs out of the website, the session id is then destroyed at both client and server end.If they are found equal, the user is responded with the webpage he requested. This session id is checked to the one in the database. For every subsequent request from the client, the browser sends the session id along with the request to authenticate the user.This session id is then sent to the client and saved in the browser. This session is provided a unique id called as session id through which the user is authenticated for the time the session is alive. If the credentials are found valid, the session is created for the user. After we log in the credentials are checked by a simple query in the database.The user logs in by providing his credentials to the website.While using cookies to authenticate the user, the workflow is in four simple steps This is purely for our understanding and using the same while developing/testing. It should be noted that this would not work on the website's server. Similarly, when a session id expires, you are no more authenticated to the server and need to log in again. When a token expires, the authorization fails.
In this tutorial, we will pass Session ID Cookie onto the next request.Ī session id is similar to token expiry. Since every page is a unique request as seen from the server's point of view, every web page needs the cookie to show you the best results. Cookie values are needed to be passed onto another request to match your preferences and data saved with every page you see. As we discussed in what is cookies tutorial, a server recognizes its own cookies and no other cookie. Cookie values are passed onto another request only if the website is the same. So basically this tutorial is designed to make you understand how we can pass one cookie value onto another request. How to Share Session ID across Different Requests in Postman? Knowledge of assertions - How to execute Assertions in Postman?.Knowledge of using Cookies in Postman - How to use cookies in Postman?.Knowledge of Cookies - What are cookies?.For this, you need to know a few things beforehand. We will be using our same knowledge in this tutorial to Share Session ID across Different Requests in Postman.
In the same tutorial, in the last section, we also discussed the assertions to apply on cookies for checking the values. Those things are confined to the same requests though. In the previous tutorial about using Cookies in Postman, we studied the cookies and how to add, delete and modify them.
