Keeper can automatically fill fields in any native application using a set of custom keystrokes.
With the release of Keeper’s “Record Types” feature, a new field type is introduced which is called “Native App Filler”:
- The Native App Filler function includes a Title match and a Record match field.
- The Title match looks at the application title or program name.
- The Record match looks at the contents of the screen using OCR scanning and will select a matching record only when the Title matches. This is useful for legacy terminal connection tools such as
TN3270client emulators. - The “Auto-Type Keystrokes” field allows you to initiate a specific keystroke sequence utilizing portions of the record and any other keyboard actions.
In the simple example below, the “Zoom” app name is matched and the username + <Tab> + password is typed when the user hits the hotkey Ctrl+Shift+M:
When you launch an application that matches the Application Title or Program Name field, the KeeperFill for Apps system tray icon will change from the Keeper logo to a lock icon. At that point, hitting the assigned hotkey will initiate the Auto-Type keystroke filling sequence.
By default, the Native App Filler hotkey is set to Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + M. To change the hotkey, simply to go Settings > KeeperFill Hotkeys.
Supported Key Strokes
The Auto-Type Keystrokes can contain many different keystroke elements.
The supported keystrokes are as follows:
| Keystroke | Description |
|---|---|
{USERNAME} | Record username field |
{PASSWORD} | Record password field |
{TOTP} | Record Two-Factor Code field |
{URL} | Record Website URL field |
{FIELD:XXX} | XXX=Value for Custom Field Name |
{ENTER} | Enter key |
{TAB} | Tab key |
{DELAY:X} | Delay by X number of seconds |
{UP} | Up arrow key |
{DOWN} | Down arrow key |
{LEFT} | Left arrow key |
{RIGHT} | Right arrow key |
{TEXT:XXX} | XXX=Arbitrary text to fill |
{SPACE} | Space character |
Native App Filler for Multiple Apps with Identical Credentials
Sources:
An additional feature of Native App Filler is the ability to use the same Keeper record to fill credentials for multiple applications. For example, for Microsoft Office, you likely have a set of Microsoft Credentials that you use to log in to multiple applications in the Office suite. Simply list your applications separated with commas in the Application Title or Program Name field of the Native App Filler section of the record.
In this example, we can automatically fill credentials for Teams and Excel by listing “Microsoft Teams, Excel” in the Application Title or Program Name field.
