Hi! I like the new "Send" feature very much. Do you plan on implementing sharing directly username/password pairs ?

Hey @someone235
- if the password was for a specific login: open the extension > click My Vault > find and click the login > you should be on the "View Item" page. If there are any previous passwords, there will be small text down the bottom of the page that says "Password history: 2" (or however many previous passwords there are). You can click the number to get a list of previous passwords.
- if the password was generated in the password generator: open the extension > click Generator > click Password History
@eliykat Hi, I saw it only now. Thanks a lot!
Hey guys! for research purposes, is it possible to link bitwarden with another type of DB, say sqlite? so, instead of running a SQLServer one, i'd use sqlite. I don't see it in the documentation, and I think I saw in bitwarden/server#453 talking about postgres, but not sure if it was just for Postgres

or the protocol used between server and client
I'm trying to hook bitwarden as a secret store to my terraform configs, and would appreciate if there was any docs/pointers on how to go about it
We have a documented public API, but it's more to do with managing users in organizations, so I'm not sure it'll expose the functionality you need: https://bitwarden.com/help/article/public-api/
I'm not sure exactly what you need to do, but you could consider just calling the CLI client from your program, that would allow you to access all functionality via scripting without having to reverse engineer the API. https://bitwarden.com/help/article/cli/

yeah, that was my option #2 if there was no public API, the idea would be to link my personal infra with bitwarden through a provider with no external binary dependencies. for now I will just set the passwords manually though given there is no straightforward way
Hey guys! So, I'm trying to understand how the autofill works with the browser extension. I don't see any connections being made to the backend, so I assume that chrome has like a storage just for the extension, and here there is some kind of DB that stores all the vault's entries? Any guidance on how i can check this and maybe tweak it ? :)

Hi guys, I'm a CE student who wants to get some experience on contributing to open source projects and I decided to start with BitWarden because it is a tool that I use a lot and I'd like to give my contribute. So, do you have any advice for a open-source-newbie? :) I'm having some troubles because I don't really know where I should start.

Yeah I think so! Go to the extension page, click on the background,html that’s there, opens the console and network tabs for the extension
not sure where exactly what you are looking for, but I can see the last generated passwords etc.
Do I need to load the extension everytme I run the npm run build:watch ??

I've just been using Bitwarden a bit cleaning up my passwords, and came up with a couple of features that would be really nice. (1) Improved Search in Btiwarden, especially in Notes, highlighting the search words in the Note (or the box at right in general, making it optional). If you have a long note, it will identify the note, but there is no way to further search to find what you are looking for. (2) While we're at it, how about Find/Replace functionality? I've been using Notepad to copy/paste between to do that. Perhaps I'm just using Notes wrong... Anyhoo...

is it just me or does ctrl-w end the desktop process after the latest update?
prior to this,
ctrl-w didn't end the process, it would close the window and put it in the tray
this is on windows 10
tried to find github/community posts on this but I couldn't find any
I can't seem to login to the community forums

Thoughts on this? I'm developing a "Welcome Page" which contains inputs for
first_name, last_name, username, password, password_confirm with the username input being readonly and all of the fields having autocomplete of their corresponding given-name, family-name, username, and new-password. HOWEVER, when on that page and if you tell bitwarden to autofill, and fills in the last_name (family-name) with the saved username from bitwarden while filling in the two new-password fields with the saved password.
I'd really like to improve the search speed on android. Can someone point me to where to look to try to solve this problem: bitwarden/mobile#579
Hey @wjhrdy, here are my recommendations:
- Clone a copy of the mobile repo and get it running in the Android emulator to start with. Check out any instructions in readme.md/contributing.md.
- The dedicated search service is in Core > Services > SearchService. However, you'd also have to have a look at where/how it's called by the other services or classes
- ??? work your magic
If you have a large vault, that ~7 sec delay after logging in or unlocking might just be caused by decrypting your vault, which is CPU-intensive. That's done locally by design and search doesn't have anything to return until decryption is done. But you could definitely dig into it to see if that assumption is correct and if anything could be improved
Why have they still not updated the self hosted script? The new version has been out for 10 days.
