Upon opening, you should see a table with the following columns:

* **No**: The row number.&#x20;
* **Title**: The name of the cookie, usually the id of that cookie.&#x20;
* **Description**: The detail of that cookie. This information is usually blank. The description of that cookie will also be visible on the cookie banner.&#x20;
* **Category**: The category of that banner. By default, there will be 4 categories: Necessary, Preferences, Marketing, Analytics. If you have published the cookie but haven't put it in any category, it will still not be displayed on your cookie banner.&#x20;
* **Status**: If the cookie has been published or not. Once published, it will be visible for people to see it on your cookie banner so that they are aware of its existence and usage.&#x20;
* **Scanned**: If the cookie was created by you or scanned from your customers' browsers.&#x20;
* **Action**: Once hover over the row (cookie), you can opt to edit the cookie's information or delete it.&#x20;

You can quickly filter out the cookies using the conditions on top of the table:
