    Hi, deepk21, the cookie name is LOGGED_IN_COOKIE, seen in the WordPress/wp-includes/default-constants.php file.

    It’s currently declared like so:

    if ( ! defined( 'LOGGED_IN_COOKIE' ) ) {
		define( 'LOGGED_IN_COOKIE', 'wordpress_logged_in_' . COOKIEHASH );
	}

    Thanks Ian, I got the cookie but the same cookie is used for admin as well as for non-admin logged in user. As I am trying to exclude the cache for admin it is also excluded non- admin logged in users. Do I need to define any other cookie for non-admin logged in users?
