Installing Browser Extensions

Delinea Credential Manager

The Delinea Credential Manager (DCM) extension is the preferred launcher, and we recommend it for use instead of Web Password Filler (WPF). To use DCM, install one of the supported browser extensions as described below:

  • Chrome: Download from the Google Chrome Web Store.

  • Chrome Beta: Download from the Google Chrome Web Store.

  • Other Chromium browsers, such as Vivaldi or Brave: Download from the Google Chrome Web Store.

    Rarely, certain Chrome extensions that rely on specific Google services or companion software may not work correctly in other Chromium browsers.

  • Edge: Microsoft Edge supports Chrome extensions because it is a Chromium-based browser. You can install extensions from the Google Chrome Web Store in Edge by enabling the Allow extensions from other stores option in the Edge extensions settings.

    Once enabled, you can add Chrome extensions to Edge almost exactly as you would in Chrome. Certain Chrome extensions that rely on specific Google services or companion software may not work correctly in Edge in rare cases.

  • Firefox: Expected soon.

  • Safari and Opera are not supported.

DCM Beta provides early access to the latest version of the extension. We typically release the latest version a few days before the public launch. As a beta release, it may contain bugs and is intended for customer testing ahead of the official release. It is not recommended for production deployments.

Web Password Filler

WPF has been replaced by DCM. We recommend using that extension instead.

To use the WPF, install one of the supported browser extensions as described below:

  • Chrome and other Chromium browsers: Install the extension by clicking the Web launcher icon in a Web Password secret, or by downloading it from the Google Chrome Web Store.

    See Managing Extensions in Your Enterprise for details on securely managing Chrome extensions at scale.

  • Edge: Install the extension by downloading it from the Microsoft Edge add-ons site.

  • Firefox: Install the extension by clicking the Web launcher icon in a web password secret, or by downloading it from the Firefox add-ons site.

  • Safari: Install the extension by downloading it from Apple App Store. Please note the following installation specifics:

    • WPF supports Safari running on macOS Monterey and Big Sur 11.1.0, 11.2.1 and later.

    • WPF does not support the Native Messaging Host configuration in Safari browsers.

    • The Safari browser extension does not support Windows Admin Center.

    • Session recording is not supported on Safari 15 and above.

  • Opera is not supported.

URL Lists

DCM supports URL lists. Users can map a list to the URL field in web launcher mappings. This can be useful in predefining various list categories of URLs. These can then be used as a field in a secret to allow that secret to be tied to various sites. This is especially convenient for dynamic secrets, such as Active Directory.

For more information on creating URL lists and launching comma-separated URLs, please refer to the Launching Comma-Separated URLs documentation.
