How can I set a cookie in a request using Fiddler?

Question

I need to set a cookie before I issue a request to a Web site using Fiddler. How do I do this?

Answer 1

You can also use the Fiddler Composer.

1. Run Fiddler
2. Open the Composer Tab on the top.

It's easiest if you can start with another request from your web site. To do this capture a the request you want to modify, then drag it from the UI to the composer tab.
