Here's a summary of the key points about POE Session ID:

  • Purpose: It's a temporary identifier used to keep you logged in to the Path of Exile forum and to allow authorized third-party tools like Procurement to access your forum account information.
  • Generation: It's created automatically when you log in to the Path of Exile website.
  • Sharing: It should only be shared with trusted tools that you've intentionally authorized.
  • Resetting: You can reset it by logging out of the Path of Exile website and logging back in. This invalidates any previous session cookies, protecting your account security.

Key considerations for security:

  • Treat it like a password: Avoid sharing it with unauthorized tools or websites to prevent potential account access.
  • Use trusted tools: Only use third-party tools that are reputable and have clear privacy policies regarding your POESESSID.
  • Reset regularly: Consider resetting your POESESSID periodically, especially if you've shared it with tools in the past or have concerns about security.

Additional tips:

  • Check tool requirements: Before using a third-party tool, verify if it actually requires your POESESSID. Some tools may have alternative authentication methods.
  • Stay informed: Keep up-to-date on Path of Exile's security policies and any changes related to POESESSID usage.

Do not share POESESSID values with other people

Some third-party tools ask that you give them your Path of Exile website session cookie in order for them to be able to function, without explaining the significant risks this exposes you to. This cookie value gives the recipient almost complete access to your Path of Exile account on the website, enabling them to do almost any action including viewing personal information, spending your points, or posting on the forums as you.

While sharing any login information with other people is specifically against Path of Exile's terms of use, we haven't yet proactively banned any users for sharing their POESESSID values. However, if your session is misused and someone does something bad on your account that results in a ban, then the intentional disclosure of your account credentials is only going to make the situation worse. Your account is valuable to you. Protect it and don't give other people access.

Note that while you may trust the third-party tools you are using currently, there is nothing to stop someone updating them in the future to harvest credentials. If the third-party tools store your credentials locally, then they're often stored insecurely and can be sniped by other programs you may also be running.

The secure way of granting tools access to your data is via OAuth. We support OAuth with all of our officially documented API endpoints and a large number of tools have already implemented this. We are continuing work to expand the resources available (such as the trade website) to third-party tool developers.
