You can require a Master Password to open your logins, Secure Notes, and secrets. This article explains how to turn on this setting for individual logins, Secure Notes, and secrets—or all of your logins at once.

After you turn on this setting for a login, Secure Note, or secret, you're asked to enter your Master Password when you copy, view, or autofill the item. You won't have to enter a Master Password or use biometric unlock more than once every five minutes or right after you log in, even when this setting is turned on.

Tip: Turn on Biometric unlock in your web app settings to use Touch ID, Windows Hello, or a security key instead of your Master Password when autofilling protected logins in Google Chrome or another Chromium browser.

You can update this setting in the Dashlane web app for logins, Secure Notes, and secrets. For Secure Notes, you can also update this setting in your mobile app.

Note: You'll always need to enter your Master Password when copying, autofilling, or viewing the details of payment methods like credit cards. After entering your Master Password to use a payment method, we won't ask again for the next five minutes. You can use Biometric unlock instead of your Master Password when autofilling payment methods in Google Chrome or another Chromium browser.
