Hi Sebb,
Maybe an example works better. I know what I need to do but I just don't know
how (i.e. already past the proxy stage).
Say you have a cookie:
_ABC_DEF_1234567890 = true
In the following POST there is something like
GHIJK = 1234567890
...where 1234567890 changes for each request. Usually you'd just reference the
cookie as ${_ABC_DEF_1234567890} but I can't do that here because the
1234567890 part is not static. So my question is, how do I access that cookie?
i.e. find out what name it has?
Cheers Oliver

This should not prevent the Proxy from recording the session.
However, the generated test plan won't be replayable without further work.
One approach for finding the variable parts of the test plan would be
to record two separate sessions and compare the test plans.

Depends how the cookies are provided. If the server provides the
cookie, then the Cookie Manager is all you need.
If the browser provides the cookie using Javascript, then you will
need to look at how it does this. I.e. examine the HTML and then use a
regex to extract the bits it uses to create the cookie.

No.
