Does this request include the scenario where I want to be able to fill credentials that don’t match the current site I’m on. For example, I use one of those financial aggregator sites. Their URL is financialaggregator.com, and there is a bitwarden entry that matches. However, within the application I want to add a connection to mybank.com. The aggregator app prompts me for my credentials to mybank.com. Bitwarden only recognizes financialaggregator.com. I search the extension for mybank, I copy the username and paste it. Then I have to search the extension again and then copy the password. And then again for the TOTP.
I would like, within any username/password field, to be able to search AND THEN autofill without having to copy/paste each individual field. And even if that isn’t possible, I want the previous search to stay so I don’t have to search again in order to copy password and then search again for TOTP.
If this request doesn’t match, let me know and I’ll create a new feature request.
I moved your comment into its own thread (in the Ask the Community section of the forum), so that we can determine whether your problem can be solved using available features, or whether a feature request is appropriate.
That does not seem to be a real website. Would you mind providing the real URL? Autofill problems tend to require different solutions that are specific to how the website HTML has been coded, so it may not be possible to give you a generic solution that would work on any financial aggregator site.
That being said, an initial attempt at a solution (or at least an improvement over your current situation) would be to edit all vault items for your bank accounts, to add a second URI field that matches the financialaggregator.com URI. This should at least remove the need to search for your bank account login credentials.
The site wasn’t real, just an example. This is going to exist in any site where you have to enter your creds for another site. The URL is going to be of the first site. So my request is for Bitwarden to give me a way to start typing the entry that I’m looking for and then hit a button that says “autofill here” even though the URL doesn’t match what is in the entry’s URI.
Really, the devil is going to be in the details of how this is implemented by each site. Is the site actually transferring your bank password to its own servers, and then forwarding those credentials to the bank website (effectively, working like an “Attacker-in-the-Middle”)? Or is it allowing the bank’s servers to collect your account credentials, via an iframe embedded in the aggregators site?
Regardless, you should try adding the aggregator URL as a second URI in the login items for your bank accounts. Did you try this?
This already exists. Type into the browser extension’s search bar, open the relevant search result, then click the Autofill button.
The current web vaults do not have an autofill button, although one is “on its way” per the UI refresh conversation. Today, one clicks on the vault entry itself.
But, that only works on the suggestions. For search results, clicking becomes “view”. There is a point behind this behavior. Auto-fill is a an important safety feature. By requiring the URL to match, it becomes much harder to fall victim to look-alike web sites because the break in work-flow causes one to pause and ask questions.
The true answer, as @grb says, is that the vault entry needs to have both websites/URIs listed on it, not just one. To do this, edit the vault entry scroll down below the “URL 1” field and there is a button to “Add URI”. This will result in auto-fill matching both websites.
