Security Code in Dropbox Passwords

I'm a new Dropbox Passwords user. It seems that it is not possible that the security code is auto-filled. One has to manually localize the password, click on it, copy the security code and paste it into the form. That is a tiresome process when doing it a lot of times every day.

 

Bitwarden et all all have the possibility to auto-fill the Security Code. Am I missing something or is this feature perhaps in the planning?

    Hi Louis B, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

     

    Are you referring to the password to login to the Dropbox Passwords app, or another app or site?

     

    Are you using the browser or the mobile app?

     

    This will help me to assist further!

    I mean any website that I have a security code for, which is configured in Dropbox Passwords and where I use the Dropbox Passwords extension to fill the passwords.

     

    For example, in the browser extension I can copy the username and password to the clipboard, but not the security code. Just for that I have to open Dropbox Password and find the correct security code.

     

    Does that help?

    Could you clarify what 'security code' you're referring to, if it isn't the password for the site you're trying to login on?

    Sure. I mena the TOTP token that is generated every few seconds. In Dropbox Passwords it is called "Security code".
