1Password doesn't detect domain for htaccess protection
This is an issue with both 1p 7 and 8, but it's been an annoyance for a while now.
When a URL is protected with htaccess password protection 1P isn't detecting the URL for the auto-fill. Auto-...
Hey @arcterex ,
Thank you for taking the time to write to us about this!
The 1Password extension in your browser does support basic auth prompts and will show relevant logins. For example, try this:
- Save a new login on this page: https://fill.dev/form/login-simple - you can input made up credentials and save it.
- Go to the basic auth page on that website and see if 1Password suggest the correct login item when you open the extension: https://basic.fill.dev/
However, since 1Password can only autofill actual HTML pages and forms, it won't be able to autofill the basic auth prompt as it is not a part of the page itself.
The way to utilize 1Password to log into such pages is by starting the workflow from the extension itself. Here's how:
- Open your browser.
- Click the extension icon to open 1Password.
- Locate the login item for the basic auth website login you want to get to and click on the blue "Open & Fill" button.
1Password will take you there and log you in without even showing the basic auth prompt.
Give that a try and let us know if you've managed.
