Allow a Google Colab domain cookies on chrome

Question

I am trying out Google Colab, but then I keep getting this pop up box that says:

Error

Could not access the resources needed to display output.
This is probably because third-party cookies are not allowed by your 
browser.

NotSupportedError: Failed to register a ServiceWorker: The user 
denied permission to use Service Worker.

While turn off Block third party cookies worked for me from here, I would like to keep the setting to be turned on at all times for the sake of our privacy.

Currently I will have to have another tab next to the Colab tab the so that after I have finished using Colab, I can turn it off right away and not to forget it. BUT I would have to do it every time I use Colab.

To solve this, I have tried to follow the chrome help guide and added https://colab.research.google.com and [*.]google.com to the Allow whitelist on Cookies. However the error pop up would still show. I also tried https://colab.research.google.com[/*], but chrome said its not a vaild domain.

Is there a way to allow Colab domain cookies for that?

Answer 1

For Google Chrome, go to the cookies settings page

1. Type this in the address bar

   chrome://settings/content/cookies

2. In Allow section, click add button.

3. paste this [*.]googleusercontent.com

That's all.
