Question

strict host/subdomain for web logins

I'm sure this has been asked before, but a search didn't turn up anything useful.

Is there a way to configure a specific login item to strictly match a fully qualified domain, to include the host and/or subdomain part?

An example is slack.com where every slack gets its own subdomain. I might want one login to only autofill on my_company.slack.com, and another to ONLY autofill on my_friends.slack.com.

In most cases, I would want loose subdomain matching, but for a few cases, like the above, strict matching would be great.

I feel like there was a way to configure this in the past, but I'm not seeing it in the latest version of 1Password (and 1Password for Safari).


1Password Version: 8.7.0
Extension Version: 2.2.3
OS Version: macOS 12.3.1

I'm a recent convert from lastpass, and am bummed that 1password doesn't have this ability to configure subdomains as unique logins. Some examples:
--In my industry a number of different companies post jobs on a single host site, with each company having a different subdomain and each requiring a different login.
--I'm accessing government secure sites for a particular state, and while they of course have the same domain, each site has a different subdomain requiring a unique login.
There are things about the 1password interface I like better than lastpass, but an inability to handle subdomains is not one of them.

Also a big +1 vote from me

Yep, This is the biggest anti-feature in 1P 7.

When using 1P on my iPhone I nearly always have long lists like @swwright showed and have to click the "1Password..." option to have any hope of choosing the right one.

I also regularly choose the wrong entry to autofill on my Mac but it's not as bad as it is on the phone.

+1 here!
I thought 1PW was supposed to be the best, but the last 2 PW managers I've used have this feature and it works great.
Any chance we can get an estimate of how this request is ranking?

I mean, surely it has to be more important than: "We’ve added additional animations to the lock screen." (Taken from: 1Password for Windows 8.7.1 "What's new")

Another +1 from me. I've been wanting this feature for years.

Hello @all,

I want to vote +1 too for "Subdomain Support" :)

Thanks a lot,
Markus

Hi

Add another vote for this!
I think it's strange that some people write that this has been wanted for years. I recently upgraded from 7 to 8 and in ver. 7 this worked.
At least in the old Firefox plugin, the one that didn't add a 1password icon into html-elements on the page. I have 40+ sites that uses the same domain, but different subdomains and this worked like a charm.
