Credentials auto-type for OSX

Hi,

we use multiple applications in our company which doesn't allow to paste login credentials. For that reason, we can't copy-paste from 1Password app nor use auto-fill via CMD+"\".

Would it be please possible to add a support for typing the credentials to the apps instead of pasting them? 

It can be a setting for Universal Autofill, where we would choose if the credentials will be pasted or typed, or a Keepass model where we'd choose to what opened app we want to auto-type the password.

Thank you very much

    Hello jakubp​! 👋

    Thanks for reaching out. Universal Autofill doesn't use the clipboard to fill your login credentials into apps on your Mac, it instead integrates with macOS using the Accessibility API. Universal Autofill should work even if your company has turned off copy and paste. Make sure that Universal Autofill is setup correctly: 


    Let me know if you run into any issues.
