Problem
The OkHttp, Ktor, and Apollo integrations capture only one Cookie or Set-Cookie header value when creating request and response contexts. Their current header accessors select a single value, so additional cookie fields are omitted from Sentry telemetry.
This is valid HTTP behavior. In particular, HTTP/2 allows clients to split the Cookie field into multiple header fields for compression. Responses also commonly contain multiple Set-Cookie fields.
This is follow-up completeness work from #5811 and supports #5666.
Check what other SDKs are doing before implementing.
Proposed solution
Make cookie extraction list-aware across OkHttp, Ktor, Apollo 3, and Apollo 4:
- Combine repeated request
Cookie fields with ; before applying the effective cookie policy.
- Process each response
Set-Cookie field independently because each field represents one cookie and its attributes.
- Do not comma-join or comma-split
Set-Cookie values. A valid Expires attribute contains a comma.
- Add shared core helpers or integration-specific adapters that apply the effective cookie policy to every value.
- Preserve valid
Set-Cookie attributes and fail closed for malformed input.
Preserve the existing absent-Data-Collection compatibility behavior for each integration.
Acceptance criteria
- OkHttp, Ktor, Apollo 3, and Apollo 4 capture all repeated cookie header values supported by their header APIs.
- Multiple request
Cookie fields are combined with ; and filtered as one cookie string.
- Multiple response
Set-Cookie fields are filtered independently without comma splitting or joining.
- Built-in sensitive-cookie filtering and configured allow-list, deny-list, and off behavior apply to every cookie value.
- Malformed cookie values never bypass filtering.
- Integration tests cover at least two request
Cookie fields and two response Set-Cookie fields where the underlying header API supports repeated values.
