Javascriptlet Code text is considered a "password" field for AutoFill services in Android 8+.

Whenever I change my Javascriptlet, I get a message asking me if I want to save my password to my autofill service. This can get very annoying when making a lot of Javascript changes. Could this field be marked as not a password field so that the AutoFill service doesn't look for it?

Hi. I can't reproduce that. Can you please let me know, step by step, how to do that? Or maybe with a small video?

After further investigation, it looks like this might depend on the autofill service being used, and not entirely Tasker. I only experience it with Keepass2Android and not Google's autofill service. Regardless, it might help if you could flag that field as unimportant for autofill services (if it isn't already) as described here: https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/text/autofill-optimize#important

Here is a quick video showing what I'm experiencing:

Basically, when my auto fill service is enabled, each time I make a change to the Code field in a Javascriptlet, I get a message asking to save a password.
