How do I disable form autosubmit?

In 1Password 8 when I fill a login in Safari, it automatically submits the login. I would like 1Password to fill out the fields but not hit the submit button.

In earlier versions of 1Password, I was able to do that but I can’t find the equivalent setting in 1Password 8.

Note: I’m using the Cmd-\ quick access panel to fill in passwords.


1Password Version: 8.7.0
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 12.3.1

Came here exactly the same reason. I have the auto submit disabled before, and found now v8 auto submitting the form for me, and being blocked by the website because I haven't fill in the catcha......

Adding a vote to disable autosubmit, since it breaks any login form that has a captcha.

It makes you wonder how 1Password 8 got through testing, as these are all standard use cases. Combined with the other unpredictable or uncontrolable behaviours, unintended insertion of sensitive data is too easy. I have reverted to version 7.

Yet another vote to disable autosubmit.

Adding my vote to this too, for all the reasons already stated. I was surprised to see this behavior changed, as I remember the post that @natevancouver referenced above.

On a related note, it feels like a lot of product behavior history has been overwritten with v8. I get that this is pretty much a ground up rewrite, but as someone who's read the release notes over the years and seen all the care put into tweaking all kinds of small interactions, it's really frustrating to see years of good work thrown in the bin.

Vote for me too. Auto-fill breaks Wells Fargo for me. Disabling on a per-site basis would be ideal since it works everywhere else.

Hi folks! Thanks for your discussion here. 😃

@natevancouver - thanks for pointing this out. My last reply did contain an inadvertent conflation of terms.

To be clear: the issue submitted (and for which we're now tallying votes) is for a disable autosubmit, not autofill option. So the request itself was always accurate to your intent, my post just didn't completely reflect that. Again, thanks for checking!

And I will now submit votes on behalf of everyone who has requested from May 6 forward! 👍

I already cast my vote in favor of being able to disable autosubmit. But if the proposal by @bcometa (disable autosubmit on a per-site basis) were implemented, I would need to disable autosubmit over six hundred times. Because I don't want to use autosubmit at all, and I have over 600 login items.

Of course, there could be a toggle on each login item to individually override whatever the global state is, but that's likely asking too much of the team.

Without the ability to globally disable autosubmit, disabling it on a per-site basis would not be ideal at all.

Hi @billj, thanks for this request. I get where you're coming from! While I can't speak at this point to how the implementation of this feature might be done, we do appreciate knowing about your use case, and will definitely be keeping this kind of scenario in mind. Thank you for sharing the specifics with us.
