Can 1Password automatically fill a checkbox?

Is there a way to autofill the "Security Code" checkbox on eTrade? If you have 2FA turned on, you can now select a checkbox to show a 3rd input box for the 2FA from Symantec VIP. I know 1Password...

Hello gjatkinson! 👋

Thanks for the question! You can have 1Password automatically check that box by saving a new Login item for the website manually. Follow these steps:

  1. Open the eTrade login page.
  2. Type in or fill your Login information but don't login just yet.
  3. Check the "Use security code" box.
  4. Right-click on the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar and click Save Login.
  5. Choose your existing login and then click Update.

Them, refresh the eTrade webpage and fill your login again. You should see the "Use security code" box checked. If that doesn't happen then try the steps again but this time save a new Login item at step 5 rather than updating the existing login, then try to fill the new Login item.

Let me know if you run into any issues.
