No auto-type in 1PW8?
I've upgraded to 1PW8 and now I can't auto-type passwords into application windows. Is this critical feature gone?
1Password Version: 8.4.0
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: Windows 10 21H1

Hello ITJonny,
Please excuse the delay in response. I've passed the +1 along to the product team for you about the request for an Auto-Type function within the 1Password for Windows app. Thanks for letting us know this would be useful.
With regard to the tag structure, the team is continuing to look in to adding the functionality to collapse nested tags. I have added your feedback about this to the issue we have filed with the development team.
I don't have any further news to share on these topics, but would suggest keeping 1Password up-to-date or watching 1Password Releases for the latest news about updates and fixes.
Have a great day!

Hello together
We are also currently testing 1Password for our company.
Unfortunately, we are also missing the auto-type function for applications.
This would be really handy if it could be built in.Which we use for all applications (RDP, Puty, VMware vSphere, etc.).

Best regards
ITJonnyPS: The other thing that jumped out at us is why does the tag structure (folder structure of KeePass) look so good in the client fat GUI and so bad in the web GUI?
With slightly longer folders or folder structures, you can no longer use this on the web without endless scrolling and the sidebar cannot be resized. Doesn't it make more sense for the Web GUI to be as similar as possible to the Fat GUI?Screenshot3 - Tag Structure (App & Web):

Hello folks,
Sorry for the delay in response here. CrustyPistachio / mkcom, thanks for the +1's.
@FECV, we appreciate the additional feedback and details about your current use case. I'm sorry to hear this is a deal breaker.
I've added all your feedback for the Product team's review and consideration while they look in to ways of bringing an Autofill feature to 1Password for Windows.
In the meantime, the best alternative is the
Type-in-window
that can be accessed by right-clicking the credential fields in the 1Password for Windows app.Please let me know if you have any other questions or suggestions.

When i tested 1Password i noticed that the Windows Security box was not available for auto fill on windows. That was a deal breaker along with not being able to create custom fields to type in. With KeePass i can completely customize what is typed. That is key and the gold standard here. Not every website or entry is just going be looking for just Username and Password. I have a bunch that have extra variables that are needed.

+1 for this feature.
My employer has a bunch of Java applications that I have to copy/paste my credentials into the login form all day.

Hello @mam2023!
Thanks for your message about an auto-type feature in 1Password.
We currently have Universal Autofill available for Mac, but this is not yet possible for Windows devices. This continues to be on our roadmap, but I have no new updates to share.
Not all apps are listed when I select "Type into window".
As you've mentioned,
Type in Windows
is the best option available at this time and would like to better understand the troubles you are experiencing. Could let us know what apps are not appearing when selecting this option? Or, does the list seem to be limited by the number of apps you have open? Do you have several apps open at the same time?I'm looking forward to your reply.

Hi It's been 6 months again since the last update. I see that there is a feature called "Type into window" in the latest beta, but it doesn't work like the free feature in Keepass. Not all apps are listed when I select "Type into window". I hope you improve this feature as it works in Keepass.
In Keepass I do not have to choose in a List of apps. I can focus on the Window / App I would like to Auto-Type and this Feature is missing.
