Feature Request: Password Templates (user/system wide)

Open roru69 opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

At this moment there are 5 fields that we can use in the main edit sceen. Importing passwords are limited to these fields. The password app that I use at the moment has more fields that I want to import. For instance the field "email" or "Company name".

The feature i would like to suggest is: An option in the settings menu where I can create a custom field that is always visible in the main Edit sceen and Details sceen. Ofcourse the possebility to import/export these fields from/to another DB/CSV file(s).

The above situation is per user, but it would also be nice to have the option to set the fields system wide in the admin menu.

So basically this would be the new features:

  • An administrator can define a set of default custom fields for new passwords
  • A user can edit the set of default custom fields for new passwords
  • Default custom fields will be shown as regular fields in the create/edit dialogues
  • Default custom fields can be used in the import/export for custom CSVs

Custom fields will already be shown in the normal details section, so that does not require any changes.

An administrator can define a set of default custom fields for new passwords (system wide) An user can define a set of default custom fields for new passwords (user wide) A user can edit the set of default custom fields for new passwords Default custom fields will be shown as regular fields in the create/edit dialogues Default custom fields can be used in the import/export for custom CSVs

So basicly if this feature gets implented there are 3 possebilities to add custom fields.

System wide Per user Per Password - Already implemented .

Scenario: The administrator adds two custom fields "Email and Company" An user adds another custom field "Phonenumber"

So the result would be that all users will see " Email and Company" in their default edit screen and only the user which has added his own custom field would see " EMail, Company and Phonenumber"

All users would be able to import/export the 2 extra custom fields set by the administrator, the user which has set the extra custom field would be able to import/export a total of 3 extra fields.

This would come in very handy. I just had to manually create the same custom field label 20+ times.

Some other password managers associate "secret type" with custom fields , its like a password template and each has its own set of custom fields. This looks like the most flexible option.

As an example, if I previously created a template (on the system level for example) "External consultant" and i add "Company" and "Phone" custom fields to it, I would be able to select it later when creating a password and just enter the values for given custom fields.
