Fill generated password -- can't get the password

On many sites there’s no option to “view” the password. I use bitwarden for many things including saving sever logins etc.

I’m sure I’m missing something obvious but unless bitwarden creates a new entry for the site or updates the existing one automatically I’ve been unable to find a way to actually access the generated password.

So I create a new account and let bitwarden fill in the generated password and then create and when I go to log back in I don’t know what the password is. I’ve tried clicking on the value, checking my clipboard, right clicking. Nothing appears to give access to the password any clicks just replace with a new password.

This makes this functionality essentially unusuable unless the input has the ability to show the password.

@calbrenar Welcome to the forum!

When the Bitwarden extension generates a password like you described, it should be added in the “password history” of the generator:

You may have to scroll down on the generator page to see the “Generator history”.
