I need to know how to read user's search history by cookies, i.e., how I can track my cookies and get the list of keywords/text used in the search engines by the user. Is it possible please suggest some ideas to do it? or How I can achieve this by C#/ASP.Net State management?

Thanks in advance.

What I have tried:

Cookies are the domain name perspective, I tried to read my own site search history, but I failed.

Cookies are available via Request.Cookies collection. To read your custom defined cookies, you can simply do something like this:

C#

if(Request.Cookies["YourKey"]!=null)
{
   var myCookie = Request.Cookies["YourKey"].Value;
}

For more information, refer the official documentation here: How to: Read a Cookie[^]
