All old cookies deleted after cookiebot auto rescanned

Answered

I noticed that when i moved my website from http to https cookie bot did a re-scan and after 1 or 2 days and deleted all old cookies (message like Deleted 12 cookies), Even after re-scanning manually it was still not able to cookies it scanned previously. So i had to add manually all the cookies. Not sure why old cookies where deleted & not detected again?

Any reason for this?

    Hi there,

    Changing your website from http to https does not affect the number of discovered cookies in itself. It is not possible to say why the number of cookies was reduced from the information at hand. It could be that the site now blocks our scanner, so you could try to whitelist the IP's we scan from and initiate a new scan from the manager (click "Scan domain now" under the "Cookies" menu item).

    I got confirmation from IT Administrator that there is no traffic from  IP addresses mentioned by

    13.74.44.241
    40.91.211.73
    52.232.29.198
    23.100.63.22

    so not sure why cookies are not being detected

    Hi there,

    Try and see this thread: https://support.cookiebot.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360009941994-Cookiebot-Crawler

    If something on your side is blocking the Cookiebot scanner, then you need to whitelist those IP addresses we scan from. However, if the scanner is being blocked, it will try and scan from a number of rotating IPs instead so that might explain why you have not seen traffic from the IPs we normally scan from. You can try and whitelist them first, then manually initiate another scan (from the 'Cookies' menu point on your Cookiebot account, you can initiate a new scan).
