Connect your Vinted account with a refresh token

Connect a Vinted account manually by copying the refresh_token_web cookie from Chrome.

On this page

This advanced method lets you connect a Vinted account to Souk by copying the refresh_token_web cookie from your Vinted session.

Important: your refresh token gives access to your Vinted session. Never share it anywhere except inside Souk, and do not send it by message.

Before you start

  • Use Chrome on a desktop computer.
  • Open a private (Incognito) window: ⋮ → New Incognito window, or Command + Shift + N on Mac, Ctrl + Shift + N on Windows.
  • In that window, log in to Vinted with the account you want to connect to Souk.

Why a private window: a Vinted refresh token works only once. As soon as you link it, Souk exchanges it for a new token and the old one becomes worthless. If the browser you copied it from later tries to use it, Vinted treats it as reuse and ends the whole session, Souk's included: Souk loses the account a few minutes or hours later.

Copy your refresh_token_web

  1. Open Vinted in the private window and make sure you are logged in to the correct account.
  2. Open Developer Tools: on Mac, press F12 or Command + Option + I; on Windows, press F12 or Ctrl + Shift + I. You can also right-click the page and choose Inspect, or use Chrome’s ⋮ → More tools → Developer tools menu.
  3. Open the Application tab. If it is hidden, click » to display more tabs.
  4. In the left sidebar, open Storage → Cookies.
  5. Select the Vinted domain shown there, such as https://www.vinted.fr or https://www.vinted.com.
  6. Find the row named refresh_token_web.
  7. Copy the complete value from the Value column.

Paste the token into Souk

  1. Return to Souk.
  2. Open the Vinted account connection page.
  3. Expand Advanced: link with a refresh token.
  4. Paste the value into Vinted refresh token.
  5. Click Link account.

After linking: close the private window

  1. Close the private window without logging out of Vinted. Logging out cancels the token you just gave Souk.
  2. Do not reuse that Vinted session: keep using Vinted in your usual browser or app as before. A separate login there does not affect Souk.

Closing a private window deletes its cookies, so the copied session is now used only by Souk.

Troubleshooting

  • You cannot find refresh_token_web: make sure you are logged in to Vinted in the private window, then reload the page.
  • You see several Vinted domains: choose the domain that matches the Vinted tab you opened.
  • The account disconnects a few minutes or hours after linking: the session you copied was still used in a browser, so Vinted cancelled Souk's token. Link it again from a private window and close it without logging out, or use the standard Vinted connection method.
  • Souk says the token is invalid or expired: reload Vinted, sign in again if needed, then copy the token again.
  • The Application tab is hidden: make Developer Tools wider or click ».
  • The issue continues: use the standard Vinted connection method or contact support.
