Change the Default Autofill Behavior

aronduby

Almost all of our passwords (part of a business account with ~12 people) need to use the "Only fill on this exact domain" autofill option, so it would be nice if that could be set as the default.

Hello @aronduby,

Thanks for your feedback! Given the account type and your specific use case, I can see where being able change the default option where a login is suggested and filled to Only fill on this exact domain would be helpful. I can't make any promises, but I've filed an Insight with the Product team.

Let us know if you have any other suggestions!

Some sort of setting to change the default behavior and/or policy to apply to certain vaults/user groups would be beneficial.

We have multiple internal URLs that are subdomains.

If you have any other suggestions, we'll be here to help!

Having the ability to change the default to autofill behaviour to "Only fill on this exact domain" would be a game changer, would love to see this functionality.

I work with 50 other devs using 1Password on a daily basis that would find this use case extremely helpful as 80% of our use case is working with different sub domains of a single parent domain.

Also in my team it would be of great use if we could specify a default behavior for autofill that matches exact domain, or at least to be able to customize it when a password is saved/updated, instead of having to modify them individually in the main 1password app.

+1. I've used 1password for ~10+ years and commissioned dozens of businesses onto the platform. Changing the default behaviour and not proving an option to reverse it seems to have snuck into the apparent oversimplification agenda between v7 and v8. Please fix it because it causes an hourly irritation for a product that I loved for so long because it never got in the way - it just worked! I've manually fixed the hundreds of passwords in my team's daily used vaults, but find myself having to fix new passwords every day.

you got my vote for this too. I regularly have about 30-50 passwords for the same domains but different subdomains and would kill to have the control to set this to my default behaviour. The current default setting creates way too much clutter and goes against the very purpose of a password manager in my opinion. It should serve up the passwords I need but get out of its own way and not force me to navigate through the other 49 passwords I dont need. I have just learned I can set this manually on a per-URL basis but this is also way too much work to go back and correct hundreds of passwords with multiple URLs for each (storing IP:port and FQDN) for each. Actually now that I think about it, a mass edit option to set all (or all selected) existing autofill behaviour to "Only fill on this exact domain" would be amazing.

Having a huge list for company domains when the sites are all sub-domained has allways annoyed me so discovering this option is even posible today has been a HUGE positive but now I have to go though all my passwords setting this option so having this as the default option would be amazing!

AliH1P

Hey @GazB, thanks for your feedback. I'm glad to hear you've discovered this option! I'll add your +1 to change this to be the default autofill behaviour.

I'd like to add our voice to this conversation, as my team is experiencing the same challenge.

At our company, we conduct extensive web development work, frequently dealing with numerous credentials across different subdomains of the same primary domain. We've noticed that the current autofill behavior doesn't optimally support our workflow, where the majority (about 80%) of our operations are concentrated on various subdomains. This scenario often leads to a manual selection process for credentials, which can be time-consuming and less efficient.

Echoing the sentiments expressed in this discussion, we believe that having the option to set "Only fill on this exact domain" as the default behavior would significantly streamline our processes and enhance our overall productivity.

Could you kindly provide an update on the current status of this feature request? We are keen to know if there are any plans or developments regarding the implementation of the 'Only fill on this exact domain' as a default option.

Thank you for your continued dedication to improving the user experience.

All of our Passwords/Urls are also using the "exact domain"-Option.
+1 for an option to set it as default, it's quite annoying if you forget to change it (which is also time waste) and have to change it later.

Hello @codmdu,

We need this feature because our product use subdomain and it's not possible to use 1password if all passwords of all customers are displayed at the same time :/

ag_mike_d

Hello @tonylaunay,

We appreciate the feedback. I've also included those details for your Product team's consideration.

Have a great weekend!

+1 for the ability for setting the default autofill behaviour for all new items BUT also need the ability to MASS change all the existing items.

We just migrated from another competitor and imported 1000+ items, when using the auto-fill feature it presents pages of non-related items.

ag_mike_d

Hi @dbourne - Thanks for the +1 and additional request for a way to complete a mass update for autofill behaviour existing items. I've shared your feedback with the team.

I raised a previous thread requesting this feature a year ago here https://1password.community/discussion/comment/682442

Glad to see there is more and more appetite for the feature.

I would like to emphasis how amazing it would be able to change the default autofill behaviour to "Only fill on this exact domain". It would be a complete game changer in our company of 100+

I cannot +1 this thread enough!

@Thomas1234

Thank you for the continued feedback! The feature request that my colleague filed on your behalf is still open and I've let the team know that you're still eager to see this feature implemented. 🙂

My company probably has thousands if not tens of thousands of site records sharing the same root domain and the ability to modify the default autofill behavior would be a massive Quality of Life improvement for all business users. This idea could be a simple drop-down setting in the app/extension, but it could also be further expanded upon to have a list of domains that the user or the company admin defines the autofill behavior for. This would allow most end users to have the likely desirable behavior of "fill anywhere" (like most Personal accounts), but still allow per-domain control to be "fill on this exact". I'm sure this would save hundreds of IT hours!

I cannot +1 this enough!
