You can save Wi-Fi network credentials in Dashlane for networks you need to access often or want to share with others. When someone needs access at work or home, you can show them a QR code in the item details.
When you create a Wi-Fi credential, you need to add the SSID or Service Set Identifier, which is the name of the Wi-Fi network. The SSID appears when you search for available networks on your phone or computer. This identifier helps you select the network you want from the list of available networks in the area. If available, you can also add an existing password for the network.
Currently, you can't add Wi-Fi credentials in the web app.
