Salesforce Lightning Admin browser blocks cross-domain cookies use Classic

I see lots of other folks running into this and thought I would post the fix along with my thoughts. (TL;DR).

The error message is “We can’t display this page because your browser blocks cross-domain cookies, but you can view this page in Salesforce Classic. Click here to open this page in Salesforce Classic.” It can happen in several screens and is a result of some of the base domain changes that Salesforce has been making coupled with the security changes browsers have been making. For chromium-based browsers (Edge, Chrome, Brave, etc.) the fix is to add your domain to the cookie exception list.

With screens, the process go as follows:

Go to Settings > Privacy and security
Go to Settings > Privacy and security
Select Cookies and other site data
Select Cookies and other site data
Under Sites that can always use cookies click the Add button
Under Sites that can always use cookies click the Add button
Paste your SFDC domain path in the Site dialog and Check Including third-party cookies on this site
Paste your SFDC domain path in the Site dialog and Check Including third-party cookies on this site

Click the Add button and

Refresh your Salesforce screen [F5]
Refresh your Salesforce screen [F5]
Tada!

Note: You could use a wildcard in place of the sub-domain for all salesforce domains, but I don’t recommend that as it would leave you vulnerable to some miscreants that use their orgs for nefarious purposes.

To summarize:

  1. Go to Settings > Privacy and security
  2. Select Cookies and other site data
  3. Under Sites that can always use cookies click the Add button
  4. Paste your sub-domain and domain path in the Site dialog
  5. Check Including third-party cookies on this site
  6. Click Add button
  7. Refresh your Salesforce screen [F5]
