When using “single-file-cli” with a “cookies.json” file, I got the following error:

> ./single-file-aarch64-apple-darwin --browser-cookies-file="./cookies.json" https://... target.html
Invalid parameters when calling Network.setCookies({"cookies":[{ ... }]})

The cookie JSON file was exported by a chrome extension which contained the following content:

        "hostOnly": false,

        "name": "_esc_h38",
        "path": "/",
        "sameSite": null

        "session": false,
        "storeId": null,
        "value": "5nNCJOP4Ss"
    },
    ...
]

ChatGPT said only the “name/value/domain/path” fields were required which seemed correct. The “sameSite/storeId” fields seemed suspect because of the “null” value. I removed these two fields and tried. The error didn’t show anymore. Not sure why the “Cookie-Editor” extension exports invalid field values but good to know the solution with the help from ChatGPT.
