__prerender_bypass), conflict between those apps since they are both set for the domain localhost and when I enable preview mode for the second application and come back to the first application and refresh the page, the cookie is probably taken as invalid and is deleted for both apps.What would be the solution here?, can I modify the cookie somehow in a config (for example change the name for the second app).

the enable() function only sets a cookie
Cant u set this cookie yourself
So extend the function and have your own enable() function
and isEnabled checks for your cookie
that u have set in the config
bypassToken
nah but i guess this wont work
since nexts is internally tracking for draftMode itself
I think setting a custom cookie is not available yet
SokokeOP
I can set my own cookie but it wont have the same effects
yeah
maybe open a request on github
i cant help u sry
