Now when i try to d/l the file from my drive its barkin about try enabling 3rd party cookies i dont want to enable 3rd party cookies.
How to enable 3rd-party cookies
Adobe Target, Adobe Audience Manager and the Experience Cloud Identity Service (ECID) are redirecting 3rd-party HTTP calls to their HTTPS endpoint, which can increase latency, but means you are not required to change your configuration. Analytics customers should update their implementations to exclusively use HTTPS as redirects specific to Analytics, can cause data loss.Correctly labeled cookies should collect data as intendedAs long as cookies are correctly labeled, the browser should not take any action to block these cookies. Consumers will have the option to block certain types of cookies but at this time, this appears to be an opt-in setting only.Existing 3rd party cookies without the updated labels will be ignored3rd-party cookies that are created before Chrome 80 starts enforcing the SameSite=none and secure flags will be ignored by Chrome 80 if these flags are not present. Since many of the existing Adobe 3rd-party cookies have not had those flags, these cookies will need to be updated by Adobe’s edge servers before users upgrade to Chrome 80 or those cookies will be lost. This upgrade by Adobe edge servers will happen automatically as users visit any website where the cookie is used. For most Adobe products, cookies will have the appropriate flags by the time Chrome 80 is released. The exception is Adobe Analytics implementations that use 3rd-party data collection and do not use the Experience Cloud Identity Service (ECID). These customers may experience a small, temporary increase in new visitors that otherwise would have been returning visitors.Possible cookie match Now when i try to d/l the file from my drive its barkin about try enabling 3rd party cookies i dont want to enable 3rd party cookies. Many of these answers are good and solve the issue of the loop, however, they do not actually answer the question of adding third party links for JUST the parent URL. (I had solved my on login loop by allowing the 3rd party cookies under https:teams.microsoft.com, and searching for how to do this programmatically led me to this question.)It's documented here in this question under @JuniorAdmin's answer that we're able to change the registry values to force a site's cookies as an exception (tested and validated in my own setup - see screenshots below).To add the 3rd Party Cookies to a given URL you need to use two URL Patterns; the Syntax is as follows:ThirdPartyCookieURLPattern,ParentURLPatternExample: would allow 3rd party cookies from only Stack Overflow to beexecuted in Super User, or ALL 3rd party cookies for Microsoft Teams.Applying this, we are able to enforce this change. (In these screenshots, I've specified I want ALL third party cookies from the other 2 parent URL's I used in the initial test from screenshots above.) SourcesDespite @JuniorAdmin's answer to this question, I did not learn about the Registry path from there. I found it here, where it referenced downloading a Bundle from this link'.(Perform a Bundle Download for your Architecture (32-bit, 64-bit) and then extract the bundle. Under the Configuration\examples\ directory, edit the Chrome.reg file as referenced to see what all can be set. Not sure if it contains every flag known, but it is fairly exhaustive.)I stumbled upon the augmentation of the URL using 2 different URL Patterns from a Reddit article (justlittleme123's answer specifies it clearly), which led to an MSDN article that specifies it in case anyone needs to do this programmatically (pulled from justlittleme123's answer including highlighting, in case their answer is removed from Reddit). . .Comments

2025-03-27Decrease for Destination and Marketplace partners (Audience Manager only)While Adobe has control over updating their cookies, they can’t force partners to make necessary changes. Cookie matching may decrease for Audience Manager customers using destination partners or Marketplace partners that have not made these updates.Analytics Friendly 3rd-party Cookies (Analytics s_vi cookies only)Some Analytics implementations use an Analytics CNAME alias to enable creating the s_vi cookie in the domain of that CNAME. If the CNAME is in the same domain as your website, this will be a 1st-party cookie. However, if you own multiple domains and use the same CNAME for data collection across all your domains, then it will be a 3rd-party cookie on those other domains. When Chrome starts defaulting cookies without a SameSite setting to Lax, this cookie will no longer be visible on these other domains. To make the behavior more similar across all browsers, in February, after the Chrome 80 release, Analytics will start explicitly setting the SameSite value of this cookie to Lax. If you use this cookie in a friendly 3rd-party context, you will need to have the cookie set with SameSite = none, which also means you must always use HTTPS. Contact Adobe Customer Care to have the SameSite value changed for your secure CNAMEs. Note, this action is NOT required for Analytics customers using the Experience Cloud Identity Service (ECID), for those using a separate CNAME for each of their domains or those using only 3rd-party Analytics data collection.Adobe Standard Visitor CookiesOnly the
2025-04-18The domain of the cookie. This is the new default for cookies in Chrome.Strict — Cookies with this setting are only sent when both the referring page and the landing page are part of the same domain as the cookie.None — Cookies with this setting are available for external or 3rd-party access, i.e. “cross-site.” Prior to this change, none was the default SameSite setting for cookies, so using this setting makes a cookie behave most similarly to how it has traditionally worked. However, Google is requiring that any cookie with this setting now specify the secure flag, which means the cookie will only be created and sent with requests over HTTPS. All cross-site cookies without the secure flag will be rejected by Google.Chrome 80 is expected to be released in early February, 2020. Firefox and Edge have also announced that they will be adopting these changes. The functionality is already present in both browsers, but is disabled by default. They have not announced a date when they will make this their default behavior.What do I need to know as an Adobe Experience Cloud customer?No JavaScript updates requiredAdobe is updating their edge servers to set the appropriate cookie attributes. Most Adobe products have already released server-side updates to set their 3rd-party cookies with the appropriate attributes. Analytics and Ad Cloud will release their final changes the first week of January.Ensure 3rd-party endpoints are using HTTPSAll customers should confirm that their JavaScript configuration is using HTTPS for their calls to Adobe services.
