How does it work?
This criterion lets you match based on the presence or absence of a cookie name and optionally, the value.
Operators
You can select the following logical conditions:
| Value | The Rule is True When… |
|---|---|
| is | the cookie value you specified in the text field matches the one in the requested URL. |
| is not | The cookie value you specified in the text field does not match the one in the requested URL. |
| exists | the cookie name you specified in the text field is present in the requested URL. |
| does not exist | the cookie name you specified in the text field is not present in the requested URL. |
| is in range | the numeric cookie value is between the lower and upper bounds you selected. |
Fields
In the name field, enter the cookie name you want to use for the match.
Optionally, you can specify the value for the cookie. For a large number of values, you can paste the addresses and separate them with a space, comma, or carriage return. Any special characters should be entered the same way as the origin expects them. For example, if the origin escapes the space character as %20, you should enter a space in this value field.
If you omit the value, the match applies to any request that contains the cookie name.
Wildcards
| Wildcard | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| * | matches zero or more characters | The rule includes a match where the cookie value is 123*. Some possible valid results are 123 and 123456. |
| ? | matches a single character | The rule includes a match where the cookie value is 123?. Some possible valid results are 123 and 1234. |
Additional Options

- Case-sensitive name: If you select this option, the cookie name in the incoming request has to match the case of the entry.
- Wildcards in value: When enabled, allows * and ? wildcard matches in the value field.
- Case-sensitive value: If you select this option, the value in the incoming request has to match the case of the entry.
