Http basic auth not filling in

paillat

When heading to a website that uses http basic auth, 1password does not autofill not even let me fill in the login credentials. I need to copy them and paste them in manually every time. Anyone has some suggestions?

Extension Version: 2.15.1
OS Version: Windows 10.0.22631 Build 22631

Hello @paillat! 👋

I'm sorry that you're having trouble filling into a basic authentication prompt. Can you please try the following steps:

1. Open the web page and navigate to the basic auth prompt so that you see it open on your screen.
2. Click on the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar.
3. Click on the correct item and then click Autofill.

Your login credentials should be filled and submitted. Are you following these steps and finding that things still aren't working?

When opening the website, the website does not fully load before the popup opens, wich is a javascript alert box I believe. Thus the extension does not even know what url is being loaded. If I go to the item in the extention and click on open and fill, it opens it but does not fill anything, just the popup opens as always.

Thanks for the reply. If you're seeing "Open & Fill" when you select the Login item in the 1Password pop-up then it likely means that you don't have the right URL saved in 1Password.

Can you add the website's URL to your Login item in 1Password? If it's already there then remove it and add it again just to make sure that it's correct. After you've done so, you should see an Autofill button in the pop-up when selecting the Login item.

I just checked that the orrect url was saved, it was, removed it and added it again but that did not change anything.

I'm sorry that filling still isn't working. Could you try filling a basic auth prompt using the following testing site and instructions:

1. Click the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar and select New Item > Login.
2. Add the URL https://basic.fill.dev to the item
3. Enter test as the username, and autofill as the password.
4. Navigate to this link -> https://basic.fill.dev
5. Left click the 1Password icon in the toolbar, and click 'Autofill'.

Does filling the prompt on the testing site work? I look forward to hearing from you.
