Hi,

I just finished identifying all cookies used on my Appian applications. I need to categorize them between essential and non-essential. Are there any existing guidelines or documentation on this? Which cookies are considered essential by Appian?

In particular, I can't quite figure out the right category for the JSESSIONID Appian cookie.

Thanks for your guidance!

I recommend to contact Appian for detailed information about the cookies and their usage.

JSESSIONID is your login token.

In short, that one sounds like the most important one of all.  It's what allows the computer to know that it's still you, still logged onto Appian.  I don't know if you could go through a single screen transition as the same user without it.  Sessions are the key to being able to log into websites at all, and the session cookies make a very fascinating security topic as well.
