🔑 The method to achieve Cookie

This will be needed only when Cookie Mode was enabled.

• 1.Login Weibo in your browser(Chrome recommended), open minipublish page. It could be very simple to catch a request to achieve cookie in this page due to less content.
• 2.Open developer tool by press command + option + i, switch to Network tab.
• 3.Refresh page and developer tool will catch requests, select minipublish request, it can be the first one usually.
• 4.Then pay attention to Headers section right, find out the content as above picture’s red box selected.
• 5.Copy the content and paste it into uPic’s Cookie field.

⚖️ Two methods’ difference

• Username/Password Mode: Can achieve cookie automatically by call Weibo’s api and do upload. But because of its extra request, it can be a bit slow.
• Cookie Mode: More faster. But it can be a bit difficult for rookie.

Either method is ok, you can choose the one you favorite.
