setCookies(cookies)

Creates a list of cookie objects. Used in conjunction with the Cookie class.

Signature

public Void setCookies(Cookie[] cookies)

Parameters

cookies
Type: System.Cookie[]

Return Value

Type: Void

Usage

  • Cookie names and values set in Apex are URL encoded, that is, characters such as @ are replaced with a percent sign and their hexadecimal representation.
  • The setCookies method adds the prefix “apex__” to the cookie names.
  • Setting a cookie's value to null sends a cookie with an empty string value instead of setting an expired attribute.
  • After you create a cookie, the properties of the cookie can't be changed.
  • Be careful when storing sensitive information in cookies. Pages are cached regardless of a cookie value. If you use a cookie value to generate dynamic content, you should disable page caching. For more information, see Configure Site Caching in Salesforce Help.
