Go & Fill
First, there was the manual typing of your name and password into each website, and it was ok. Then there was 1Password’s ability to quickly save and retrieve your passwords, and it was good. Now 1Password’s Go & Fill feature means you may never have to type “.com” again—and it is great!
Go & Fill gives you even faster access to your Logins by automatically opening their URL, filling in your name and password, and submitting the form to get you on your way. This wonderful time-saving feature is accessible in a couple of different ways, depending on which browser you’re using, or whether you’re even in a browser at all.
You can watch Go & Fill in action in a short 2-minute screencast below or read about its features in the rest of this guide. ## 1Password Screencast: Go & Fill ##Login From the Mac OS X Dock
If 1Password is running and your data file is unlocked, you can right-click the Dock icon and choose the Go & Fill menu. Any folders that you use to organize your Logins will appear here, and the “Unassigned” folder will display everything else.
If your data file is locked, the Go & Fill menu will be grayed out. To gain access to the menu, simply select the “Unlock 1Password” option to do exactly what its name suggests. The Go & Fill menu should now be accessible from the Dock.
Ultimate Convenience in Your Browser
If you are already surfing with a browser, Go & Fill is accessible from the menubar so you do not have to switch applications or, for the keyboard junkies, even move your mouse (in this case, the 1Password application does not need to be running). Depending on the browser, a “Show Logins” option should appear in either the Edit or View menus, just above the “Login with 1Password” option.
Clicking “Show Logins” from a browser menu (or using the Cmd-Opt-\ keyboard shortcut) will display a slick, translucent window. Here you can quickly pick a Login by typing a few letters of its name or address, or you can press the “Select a Login…” button to browse your entire Agile Keychain like with the Dock menu.
When the desired site has been found, keyboard junkies can press tab, arrow to the Login, and hit enter. Mouse users can simply click. Either way, the site’s URL will open in a new tab or window in your default browser, the relevant credentials will be filled in for you, and the form will be submitted to get you into the site.
Outside of 1Password being able to read your mind (you never know, we could be working on it!), Go & Fill is quite possibly the fastest way to log into your sites.
