HTTP auth dialog manual selection about keepassxc-browser HOT 16 CLOSED

I can investigate if this is possible. Currently the popup should show available credentials but maybe not in this case.

from keepassxc-browser.

With HTTP autofill turned off, firefox for linux shows the default http auth dialog which take focus on the window so there is no way to click on the plugin icon (yeah, firefox default http auth is quite intrusive ;))

from keepassxc-browser.

That's how it is also in Chromium. No manual selection of credentials is possible.

@varjolintu You can test it with this demo: https://httpbin.org/basic-auth/user/passwd
User is "user", password is "passwd".

from keepassxc-browser.

@Hativ Make a second entry for that page with different user and password. Close your browser (this clears the HTTP Auth data for sure). Then go to that URL. It doesn't load but the extension icon is blinking. Choose the correct credentals from there.

If there's only one entry for the page URL it's automatically used.

from keepassxc-browser.

The entry is not automatically used if "Auto fill HTTP Auth dialogs and send them" is disabled. My suggestion is to have the ability to choose the entry manually if "Auto fill HTTP Auth dialogs and send them" is disabled. That's the only point here.

from keepassxc-browser.

Sorry if I misunderstood. The current supported situations are the following:

1. Autofill enabled with single entry: fills it automatically
2. Autofill enabled with multiple entries: use the popup the select correct credentials
3. Autofill disabled: show the normal HTTP Auth dialog

If I understand correctly, this is what you want:
4. Autofill disabled: show the normal HTTP Auth dialog and the popup credential selection

Unfortunately this is not possible because the HTTP Auth dialog cannot be interrupted and the popup cannot be accessed when it's displayed. This happens with Firefox. With Chromium accessing the popup works. But then, if the HTTP Auth process is interrupted with the popup, the normal dialog doesn't appear at all. So this cannot be resolved in a way you would like it to work.

from keepassxc-browser.

It can be resolved by replacing the normal HTTP auth dialog with a custom auth dialog when a matching URL is found in keepassxc database. This is what Kee is doing, and is way more userfriendly than the blinking icon even with autofill enabled with multiple entries.

Of course I can take a peek and see what Kee is doing right :)

Option 4 is what I want and what also chromeIPass does.

from keepassxc-browser.

I didn't even know it works with chromeIPass. What about KeePassHTTP-Connector?

from keepassxc-browser.

KeePassHTTP-Connector does it not. See smorks/keepasshttp-connector#81.

from keepassxc-browser.

This feature has been already added. Closing the issue.

from keepassxc-browser.

Option 4 was added? How can I use it?

from keepassxc-browser.

Open the popup. There's a dismiss button that opens the normal HTTP Basic Auth dialog.

from keepassxc-browser.

But that's not that feature you described as Option 4:

4. Autofill disabled: show the normal HTTP Auth dialog and the popup credential selection

That's how it chromeIPass does.

from keepassxc-browser.

That's the best I can do.
