Can someone provide more detail on the hubspotutk user token?

Specifically, approx how many characters long is it? Where can I find it in my browser? etc

Hi @PeterS72,

If you’re accessing a page that has the HubSpot tracking code you should be able to find this by opening up the Inspect tool and typing in **\_\_hsUserToken** in the Console. Another method, based on this Stack Overflow [response](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10730362/get-cookie-by-name), is to run a getCookie function:

```lia-code-sample
function getCookie(name) {
 const value = `; ${document.cookie}`;
 const parts = value.split(`; ${name}=`);
 if (parts.length === 2) return parts.pop().split(';').shift();
}

getCookie('hubspotutk')

```

Checking for the length it seems it runs 32 characters long:

I’ve tested this across a few sites with the tracking code on them and this seems consistent. Let me know if there’s anything else I can help clarify!

Thank you for the question and the response! I was wondering that myself not too long ago.
