    IE 11 and Session Token (ssoid)

    This does not work for IE 11

    Internet Explorer:

    Paste the following into the browser url bar when you have logged into the Betfair site and have the Betfair page open: javascript:alert(document.cookie)

    Copy the contents of the box with CTRL+C and then paste into an editor with CTRL+V. Look for the ssoid=SOME_VALUE; definition. The session token is the token between "ssoid=" and ";" and does not include the equals sign immediately after ssoid or the semi-colon at the end.


    IE 11 automatically takes you into a BING search looking for javascript:alert(document.cookie)

    How do you get around that?

    Worked It Out

    OK,

    With IE 11:
    • Go to Tools
    • Go To Manage Add Ons
    • Go To Search Providers
    • Uncheck Search in Address Bar


    If you don't uncheck Search in Address Bar IE 11 will send javascript:alert(document.cookie) to BING as a string for searching.

    Using javascript:alert(document.cookie) in the URL address bar will not allow you to copy and paste the Session Token (ssoid) into the tool to create your application. Your either have to type it as its displays (very tricky because its very long) or you can use javascript:document.write(document.cookie). This should give a fresh document which you can cut and paste from.

    Now the big question for me is what you should type in the application name field? Everything I try throws up a error????
