Owning Palette: Cookie VIs
Installed With: Internet Toolkit
Adds a new entry to a cookie array. The VI uses the key and value inputs to create the new entry.
If the cookie contains an entry with the same key identifier, the VI returns the value in the prev value output and sets the replaced output to TRUE.

![]() |
cookie specifies the cookie to which you want to add an entry. | ||||||
![]() |
key is a string that identifies the entry you want to add to the cookie. | ||||||
![]() |
value contains the value of the entry you want to add to the cookie. | ||||||
![]() |
error in describes error conditions that occur before this VI or function runs.
The default is no error. If an error occurred before this VI or function runs, the VI or function passes the error in value to error out. This VI or function runs normally only if no error occurred before this VI or function runs. If an error occurs while this VI or function runs, it runs normally and sets its own error status in error out. Use the Simple Error Handler or General Error Handler VIs to display the description of the error code.
Use exception control to treat what is normally an error as no error or to treat a warning as an error.
Use error in and error out to check errors and to specify execution order by wiring error out from one node to error in of the next node.

![]() |
cookie out returns the same value as cookie. | ||||||
![]() |
prev value contains the value that the VI replaced, if the cookie already contains the key identifier you specify. | ||||||
![]() |
replaced returns TRUE if the cookie already contains an entry with the key identifier you specify. | ||||||
![]() |
error out contains error information. If error in indicates that an error occurred before this VI or function ran, error out contains the same error information. Otherwise, it describes the error status that this VI or function produces.
Right-click the error out front panel indicator and select Explain Error from the shortcut menu for more information about the error.
