Getting Error 403 in Google Colab with Tensorboard with Firefox


It seems that Tensorboard needs you to enable third party cookies to run without returning a HTTP 403 (Forbidden) error.

I had the same issue using Chrome and fixed it by just allowing everything:

screenshot cookies chrome

You can do the same on Firefox like so:

screenshot firefox tracking protection

You could also find out which exact cookie is needed and then just allow that one.


For me, it worked on Firefox deactivating the Enhanced Tracking Protection.

I had faced the same issue as I had turned on 'Block third-party cookies' in chrome settings. Please refer to details issue threads here. I tried whitelisting of "googleusercontent.com", but it didn't work.

For Chrome,

1. chrome://settings/2. Under Privacy and security >> Cookies and other site data >> Allow all cookies

For Brave,

1. Turn off the shields
