Is there a similar better,easier,faster way to do credential entry with Codebook? Btw, I prefer key combination compared to mouse click to avoid RSI but it would be nice to have that option.Īlso I can’t find a codebook extension for Chrome or Firefox while Keypass and 1Password has extensions making it much easier to save credentials and enter them. Also with 1Password I can right click in login field and easily select the credential for the site and login with a single click.

In Keepass and 1Password it is a single keyboard shortcut with domain matching and I am logged in. With Codebook I have to enter the key combination/keyboard shortcut to bring up the Secret Agent, then search for the entry (ie Amazon) then Tab to select user name, then copy, go back to the browser and paste and then again repeat the steps to enter the password and then finally click/tap enter to log in to the site. In Keepass a key combination will enter the user id and password and log on to the site. Secret Agent is good for credentials entry but it takes lot more steps compared to Keepass or 1Password. That’s it, now you would be able to autofill passwords from KeePass in Microsoft Edge browser in Linux.I have been trying out different password managers to use and Codebook is one of them. If all goes well, you would be able to see a screen similar to the one shown below. Create a master key or passphrase for your database. kdbx file is the database for the saved passwords. Install KeePass latest version 2.1 and proceed to 'New' select a setup location for the. In the above path, replace “ ar” with your user id and “ microsoft-edge-dev” with “ microsoft-edge-beta“, if you are using the beta version of the browser.Īs a next step, click the plugin icon in the browser and create a connection between the browser and KeePassXC application. A simple guide on how to use KeePass Google password manager.

In my machine ( Kubuntu), the path is “ /home/ar/.config/microsoft-edge-dev/NativeMessagingHosts/“. Select “Chromium” as browser type in the Config Location, provide the config path for Edge.Navigate to the “Advanced” tab of “Browser Integration” and select “Use a custom browser configuration location:”.Select the “Browser Integration” side menu and ensure that “Chromium” is selected in the “General” tab.

Open the KeePassXC application and navigate to the settings page.If you haven’t downloaded the plugin yet, you can download it from the Edge Add-Ons site Configuration Steps
