HttpServletRequest getCookies() always returns null Jersey Api

Question

I m able to add the cookie to response and view it on my chrome browser. I checked it through settings --> advancedSettings --> content settings.

@Context
HttpServletRequest servletRequest;
Cookie[] cookies = servletRequest.getCookies();

I m using @Context to get the request and getCookies() always returns null .

I m able to see the cookie in request headers in chrome using Inspect Element.

Answer 1

I was using @context UriInfo and uriInfo variable add a request with cookie part of its header.

I was able to extract the cookie as single String and do String manipulation over it but it works fine.

Still HttpServletRequest getCookies it didn't work.
