Cross-Browser Extension - Adding and Editing Credentials
Adding a Credential
You can easily add new credentials to your any vault or client using the extension. There are two ways to add a new credential:
Using the Add Button
From any tab on the extension, or when selecting the Passportal logo in a username or password field:
- Click the Add button to add a new credential. It will automatically populate the URL so it is available the next time you visit that site
- The Add Credential screen is displayed. Complete the remaining details for the credential
- Click Save
If adding a TOTP setup code:
- During the 3rd party application or service 2FA setup, when presented with the QR Code, copy the alpha-numeric 2FA Code rather than scanning the QR Code Image
- Enter the alpha-numeric 2FA Code in the TOTP section of the credential and then Save
- Passportal will now generate a 6-digit 2FA code - View the TOTP Code in the Credential to see (and copy) the 6-digit 2FA code, which is used to confirm 2FA setup in the 3rd party application or service, and subsequent logins.
Auto-create Credential When Logging In
- When logging into a site where Passportal does not have that particular credential saved, the extension will prompt with a Save Credential? pop-up.
- Click Save here to automatically add this credential to the vault of your choice. You can change this behavior in Cross-Browser Extension - Adding and Editing Credentials. Clicking More Details allows you to enter further details to the credential
- Enter the required details and then click Save
Editing a Credential
To edit a stored credential:
- Locate the Credential in the extension,
- From the context menu, select Edit Password
- The Edit Password screen is displayed - update the credential details as you require
- To edit the Password, click the Gears icon to the right of the field
- Click Save
