Configuring cookie names and paths

You can provide explicit names for cookies and, if a cookie only applies to a certain subsection of your site, a path to that part of your Web site.

Procedure

  1. Open the cd_ambient_conf.xml in a plain-text or XML editor.
  2. Insert a <Cookies> as the last child element of the root element, <Configuration>. Next, for every cookie you want to give name and (optionally) path, insert a Cookie element with the following attributes:
    Type
    The type of the cookie, either Session or Tracking
    Name
    The name of the cookie, for example, mySessionCookie
    Path (optional)
    The path to the section of the site in which this cookie is valid; for example, /newSubsite. If the cookie is valid anywhere in the site, do not set this attribute.
  3. Save and close cd_ambient_conf.xml.
