the short answer

Both required values are present in your browser once you're logged into Zite. Push44's connection screen tells you exactly which cookie names to look for.

📖 Introduction

Zite (built on the Fillout infrastructure) protects its API with double-token CSRF security, meaning you need both a session cookie and a CSRF token to authenticate. This guide shows where to find both.

The Problem with Walled Gardens

Zite has no public developer settings page for generating an API key, which confuses users trying to connect third-party tools like Push44.

The Push44 Solution

Both required values are present in your browser once you're logged into Zite. Push44's connection screen tells you exactly which cookie names to look for.

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

5 steps
1

Log into your Zite app editor

Go to build.fillout.com and open the Zite app you want to export.

2

Open developer tools

Press F12 and go to the Application/Storage tab, then Cookies for the Zite domain.

3

Copy the session ID

Find the session cookie value as labeled in Push44's connection form and copy it exactly.

4

Copy the CSRF token

Find the CSRF cookie value in the same list and copy it as the second credential.

5

Paste both into Push44

Enter both values into their respective fields in Push44's Zite connection screen, then continue to select your app.

Pro Recommendations

✓

Both tokens are tied to your current login session — if you log out of Zite, you'll need to grab fresh values.

✓

Keep both values private; together they can authenticate as you on Zite.

Common Pitfalls to Avoid

⚠️

Mixing up the session ID and CSRF token fields — Push44 needs both in the correct field.

⚠️

Copying a stale value from an old browser tab that's since logged out.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Zite need two separate tokens?

This is a standard CSRF-protection pattern: the session cookie identifies you, and the CSRF token proves the request came from an authorized page, preventing cross-site request forgery.

What exactly does Push44 export from Zite?

Push44 reads your app's full snapshot template — every component, layout, and configuration setting — and pushes it to GitHub as source files.
