Using WPF

Once Web Password Filler is set up and you are logged into the Delinea Platform or Secret Server, you can use WPF to log in to websites for which Secrets are managed via the Delinea Platform or Secret Server.

Refer to Creating a Secret for a Website if you need to add new accounts.

Logging in to a Website

  1. Take a quick look at your WPF button on your browser's button bar. If it is grayed out, you will need to sign into Secret Server and return here.

  2. Navigate to the website you want to access. Note there is a purple and green Delinea logo in the site's account name text box:

    If you are signed into Web Password Filler and do not see the purple and green lock in the username text box, try refreshing the web page to make it appear.

  3. Click the Delinea logo. A Web Password Filler pop-up opens and one of two things can happen:

    • If you have one or multiple existing secrets for a site, a pop-up will open displaying all of the available secrets available for the site.

    • If you have no secrets related to the site, then a pop-up will open to give you the option to add a new secret:

    If you see the second possibility, you need to set up a secret for that website. See Creating a Secret for a Website.

  4. Click the button for the desired secret, and you are signed in.

Accessing Secrets Guarded by MFA

You can access secrets guarded by MFA through Web Password Filler on the Delinea Platform. When you attempt to login to a portal guarded by MFA, you will see a pop-up that they must complete an additional MFA challenge:

After clicking Challenge, you will be redirected to the Delinea Platform portal to complete the MFA challenge. When you have successfully completed the MFA challenge, you can return back to Web Password Filler to view or launch the secret.

Autofilling OTP

Web Password Filler can now auto fill OTP (time-based one-time passcode or TOTP). When a login form or a login process step prompts you to enter an OTP, and you have configured the secret to generate an OTP code, Web Password Filler will automatically put the current OTP code in the field. When the OTP code expires, it will automatically update the field with the new OTP until you submit the login.

If you do not see Web Password Filler automatically identify an OTP field, you have the option to manually copy and paste the OTP from the secret.

To copy the OTP, complete the following steps:

  1. Right-click anywhere on the page and select Web Password Filler from the context menu.

  2. Select the secret's name and click Copy OTP.

You can copy the username and password from this menu, copy them from the details view, or autofill the secret.

However, when you manually paste OTP codes, they will not update automatically. Therefore, you must ensure you are using a current code before submitting the form.

For more information on how to set up OTP on secret templates, see Enabling OTPs for Launchers.
