I develop something that base on Google service.

Now i noticed that they add a sessionid to their services and now i need to find it too.

I make a lot of searches and i noticed that they save a cookie with a name : “SID“, so i think that it is.

    Most sites set a cookie by generating a random string of letters, associating it with the user (in a secret server-side database), and using it to look up the user whenever the cookie is given back to the site. There is literally no information in the cookie itself — it is just an arbitrary string that only means something to the server. So there’s nothing to “decode”. It’s just random noise.

    I don’t know any details about Google’s cookies in particular, but I assume they follow standard practice, which means the above should be true.
