How to disable cookies in Header while creating websocket?

Question

While creating WebSocket on client side, browser also sends cookies with Headers. Is there are a way to disable this behavior.

I read WebSocket documentation on Mozilla Dev Net (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WebSocket) but couldn't find any documentation regrading this.

No, there is no way to do that.

Cookies won't be send if the websocket server is in another domain. Or if they are in another subdomain but the cookie is not allowed in subdomains.

My both client and server are running in two different domains. Both are running over HTTPS – Suyash Mohan Jan 16 '15 at 12:06
Then, only the cookies related with your websocket server domain will be sent. – vtortola Jan 16 '15 at 13:25
yeah, and what if you want to remove them? – Vincent Gerris Nov 30 '20 at 22:17
