[BUG] - Loading session via cookies

[nedoai]

When trying to create a session with the cookies argument in subsequent requests (e.g. user(username“...”).info()) - will constantly return an error TikTok returned an empty response. At the same time there is no problem with cookies. Cookies are loaded with the session successfully, but fetch request returns None.

If anyone knows how to fix it please post here.

What I mean and what it looks like:

ms_token = os.environ.get("ms_token", None)

        user_info = await user.info()
        print(user_info)
    
if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(trending_videos())

I also removed the “correct” cookie formatting from the code in TikTokApi:

 If cookies is not None:
            await context.add_cookies(cookies)

I removed it because it doesn't format cookies, but makes my normal cookies look like something else.

Solved the problem. The problem occurs due to msToken embedding when using cookies (why? I don't know).

What I did: Just set msToken to None in default requests. Surprisingly everything works. I knew that msToken could be any value, but this....

Now my sign url's looks like this:
