Using the Side menu tabs, you can access various Workspace browser extension features. Each tab will display a different view in the Content Area.
When using the Workspace browser extension with Devolutions Server, the available tabs are the Matching tab, the All Entries tab, the Favorites tab, the Recent tab, and the Password Generator tab.
In all tabs except the Password Generator tab, when hovering over an entry, three new options appear: the Copy Username, Copy Password, and View buttons. Go to the Entries functionalities section for more information.
Workspace browser extension Tabs
Matching tab
The extension opens on the Matching tab. This is where you will see the list of credentials available for the particular website you are on.
For methods of retrieving your credentials, visit Retrieve credentials with the Workspace browser extension.
At the top, you can use the Search bar to filter through all your credentials, not just those applicable to the website. You can also use the Refresh button next to it to update the search results.
At the bottom, the Add Website button opens a new browser tab that allows you to manually add a website entry in Devolutions Server through the Workspace browser extension.
For a complete list of the available fields in the Add Website window, visit Add Website. You can also consult our step-by-step guide on how to add a website entry.
All Entries tab
When accessing the All Entries tab for the first time, you need to select the Devolutions Server vaults you want to synchronize with the Workspace browser extension. Learn more about it in First login with the Workspace browser extension.
The All Entries tab allows you to browse through all your synchronized vaults for website entries only. You will first encounter the list of your synchronized vaults.
At the top, you can use the Filter bar to search through all your vaults for website entries.
You can access your vaults in two ways:
- To access a vault in Devolutions Server, click on the Open button next to a vault to open it in Devolutions Server in a new browser tab.
- To access a vault in the Workspace browser extension, click on it and navigate through the folders to manually find the entry you are looking for. The folder structure is identical to that of your Devolutions Server, except that only the paths leading to website entries will be displayed.
When navigating in the folders, the Add Website button will appear at the bottom of the Content Area. You can also use the search bar at the top to search in the specific location.
Back on the main view of the All Entries tab, the Select vaults to Sync at the bottom of the Content Area allows you to individually select the Devolutions Server vaults to synchronize with the Workspace browser extension.
Favorites tab
If you have entries marked as favorites, they will be displayed here in the Favorites tab.
You can search a particular entry using the Search In Favorites bar at the top.
Recent tab
The last entries you used will be displayed in the Recent tab.
You can search a particular entry using the Filter bar at the top.
At the bottom, you can click on the Clear Recent Entries button to erase all current entries from this view.
Password Generator tab
The Password Generator tab assists you in creating a strong and secure password adapted to your needs and to website requirements for your new account.
Your custom password is generated at the top of the Content Area with a strenght indicator below it. You can copy it or generate a new one using the Copy to Clipboard and Generate Password buttons respectively. The Password lenght, which is set to 12 by default, can also be adjusted.
In the General drop-down section, you are able to select the types of characters that your password must contain as well as the minimum number of characters of each type that must be included.
In the Advanced drop-down section, you are able to further customize your password by entering characters you want included in your password, followed by the minimum number of times they must appear. In the second field, you can also enter characters you want excluded from your password.

Entry functionalities
No matter what tab you are in (except the Password Generator tab), when hovering over an entry, three new options appear: the Copy Username, Copy Password, and View buttons.
The Copy Username and Copy Password buttons copy the username/password of the entry to your clipboard.
The View button gives you an overview of the entry as well as additional functionalities. The availability of information and functionalities depends on the type of entry and the information provided in the entry, although some of them are always available:
- Edit/Delete the entry or view its password with the vertical ellipsis button at the top right.
- Mark your entry as favorite by clicking on the Add to Favorites icon next to the entry name. The entry will then show in the Favorites tab.
- View the location of your entry under the vault and Folder (if it is located under a folder) sections.
- View and access the URL associated to the entry.
Other information and functionalities will depend on what you provided when creating the entry (username, password, tags, description, etc.).
