Simple Domain Matching Question

in 1Password in the Browser

I see there are other very long threads about enhanced domain matching. This will NOT be one of those! Although it was interesting! :-)

My Apple login item has www.icloud.com as the one and only website URL. Yet when I go to www.apple.com, the browser extension figures out that it should offer the Apple password despite the domains not matching.

My question: how does it know to do this? Do you have built-in aliases for common domains? Or does it notice the word "Apple" in the login item title and assume it might be a matching domain?

    Hi @ings!

    That's a very good question! I have asked our extension team for some details about this, I will post back here as soon as I hear back :)

    Hi @ings!

    We do indeed have some rules that do some magic behind the scenes, and this is one of those :)

    Another example of these would be Amazon: because you can login to every Amazon website with the same account, we also have a rule to treat every Amazon domain as equivalent when filling.

    I hope this helps!
