3rd-Party Cookie Settings

  • Updated

Overview

Almost every modern browser offers the ability to block 3rd-party cookies for added privacy. Some browsers even enable this behavior by default. When using an LMS, every LTI application is considered by the browser to be a 3rd-party because it's content does not come from the same URL as the LMS.

 

While Harmonize is able to detect this configuration and allow you to launch most screens into a separate window, users will have a much smoother experience by whitelisting Harmonize from the cookie blocking. Below are instructions on how to enable this in each of the browsers we support.

 

Google Chrome

  • Go to Settings in your Chrome browser
  • Scroll down to the Privacy and security section and click on the row labeled Cookies and other site data
  • Scroll down the page to the field labeled Sites that can always use cookies and click the Add button
  • In the dialog that appears, enter [*.]42lines.net as the site and click Add
  • The final setting should look similar to this:

Google Chrome: Cookie Settings

 

Mozilla Firefox

  • Go to Preferences in your Firefox browser
  • Click on the Privacy & Security link in the left side of the page
  • Scroll down the page to the Cookies and Site Data section and click on the Manage Exceptions button
  • In the dialog that appears, enter 42lines.net into the address field and click Add and then click Save Changes

Microsoft Edge

  • Go to Settings in your Edge browser
  • Click on the Cookies and Site Permissions link on the left side of the page
  • In the section labeled Allow, click the Add button
  • In the dialog that appears, enter [*.]42lines.net into the field and click Add
  • When you are finished, your settings should look similar to this:

Microsoft Edge: Cookie Settings

 

Apple Safari

Safari blocks all 3rd-party cookies by default and does not currently support whitelisting specific sites.
