getCookie() cookieName parameter?

[trymeouteh]

What is the purpose of the cookieName parameter in the getCookie() method?

To my understanding the getCookie() method is designed to get data from the cc_cookie. I tried using the getCookie() method to read other cookies...

<!-- Using JS Cookie package to making cookies easier -->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/js.cookie.min.js"></script>
<script>
	Cookies.set('apple', 'red', { expires: 7 });
	Cookies.set('banana', 'yellow', { expires: 7 });
	Cookies.set('grape', 'green', { expires: 7 });
</script>

And when I use the console in the browser and use the getCookie() method, these are the results i get...

CookieConsent.getCookie(null, 'apple')
Object {  }

CookieConsent.getCookie(null, 'grape')
Object {  }

CookieConsent.getCookie(null, 'banana')
Object {  }

CookieConsent.getCookie('red')
undefined

CookieConsent.getCookie('green') 
undefined
