The ***Website*** entry is useful for automatically opening a website and filling in your login information. Depending on the specific website, additional configuration may be required to properly send the username and password. The login process may occur automatically or might involve additional manual steps, based on how the website handles authentication. ### Settings overview * ***Username***: the username used to log into the website * ***Domain***: the domain associated with the website (if applicable). * ***Password***: the password for the website. * ***Autofill login***: Automatically fills in your credentials when opening the web page. * ***Autofill delay***: Sets a delay (in seconds) between opening the web page and autofilling the credentials. * ***Auto submit***: Automatically submits your credentials to log in immediately upon autofill completion.

In the Log in tab, set Authentication to Form, and ensure the Autofill login and Auto submit options are enabled.

The ***Discover*** command scans the webpage for fields matching those configured in the entry. This helps the application identify the correct fields to autofill when logging into the website. ### Missing fields troubleshootingThis troubleshooting method requires using a browser outside of Remote Desktop Manager. For certain websites, the autofill feature may not function automatically. Some websites specifically prevent autofilling credentials for security reasons. In these cases, you can manually identify the field IDs for the login form on the webpage. To manually find these IDs, right-click within the username and password fields, then select ***Inspect***. You will find the corresponding IDs needed for the ***HTML control*** tab of the website session entry in Remote Desktop Manager. Below is an example of inspecting the ***Username*** field. In this case, the ID for the username field is `username`. ### See also * [Devolutions Academy – Automating website logins with autofill in RDM](https://academy.devolutions.net/student/activity/2404924-automating-website-logins-with-autofill-in-rdm) --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://docs.devolutions.net/rdm/knowledge-base/knowledge-base-articles/website-authentication-with-remote-desktop-manager-windows.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `build a script that syncs our docs to a CMS` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
