Is there a way to create a cookie string?

Perhaps a wrongheaded move, but I'm interested in creating a cookie string that I can send to a remote service. That remote service would use it to make requests from the server.

This would be the same string I get if I log in from the remote using username and password, and on the server make a token and put it into the session. Its something like this:

id=5JUJQDbcva7QKEnQBKz9ghwh9uKS%2FjqtSJGBdVU4dHym+r7o3dsRls8Pvmc6WbAy6O1lANxbrmSuHNUh2FbnPnLhbGk6Qatfz+GQa+a4%2FEY%3D; HttpOnly; SameSite=Lax; Path=/; Max-Age=31449600

Since I don't know the user's password though (just the hash of the pwd), I can't send it to the remote. I'd rather just send the cookie text anyway.

What I can't figure out is how to make sure a string (the cookie "id") using actix-extras. Is this being prevented by design? Its not obvious how to do it.

I'm getting the cookie out of the request now, so I have a workaround. But I'd rather make a special 'robot cookie'.
