3,394 PointsHow can i set a cookie with the key 'treehouse'? I am trying response.set_cookie('treehouse', 'random_value')
I was under the impression that the arguments for set_cookie where name and values.
from flask import Flask, make_response
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/save')
def save():
response = make_reponse()
response.set_cookie('vlad', 'treehouse')
return response

@app.route('/save')
def save():
response = make_response()
response.set_cookie('treehouse', 'vlad') # You got these the wrong way around. ;)
return response

3,394 PointsThanks for your answer! The thing is, I think this was an error since, at first, i used the correct order. I just got really frustrated since i kinda knew i was correct so i started changing order :) Sorry for the bad snippet.
