Clear Web Storage
The Clear Web Storage step clears data in the local and/or session storage. The local and session storages are used by some websites to persist larger amounts of data that can normally be stored in a cookie.

- The
Load Web Storage step can be used to load new data
into the local and/or session storage, or replace existing data. It does not
remove the existing data, unless it overwrites it with a new value.

Properties
- Clear Local Storage
-
When checked, the storage items from the local storage will be cleared. In a browser, the local storage is normally persisted across browser sessions, similarly to persistent cookies.
- Clear Session Storage
-
When checked, the storage items from the session storage will be cleared. In a browser, the session storage is normally persisted for as long as the browser window or tab exists, similarly to a session cookie.
- Key Pattern
-
If you wish to clear only the stored items with a particular key, you can specify a pattern that matches the key of interest. If you leave the field blank, all storage items will be cleared regardless of their keys. If you do specify a pattern, note that it must match the entire key.
- Domain Pattern
-
If you wish to clear only the stored items that belong to a particular domain, you can specify a pattern that matches the domain of interest. If you leave the field blank, storage items of all domains will be cleared. If you do specify a pattern, note that it must match the entire domain.
