Haha and Bitwarden is url aware but not enough.

I work in a company where I have two okta accounts (because hey, why not) on two .okta.com subdomains.

Bitwarden _randomly_ messes up the two subdomains and most of the times (but not always, which seems strange actually), it fills the form with the wrong password. I don’t know why. I know that there is an option to make it stricter on domain matching but you can’t configure it on per item basis, only for the whole vault.

Every browser-based bitwarden client I have used have the option to choose the autofill option on single items as well as the global default. Find the login item, click edit, scroll to autofill options, where each URI is listed with a gear icon next to it. Click the gear and select the appropriate match type.

For the absolute majority of use cases, "host" should be the default, but i have found uses for both "base domain" and "regular expression" in some special cases.

Normal browser extension Bitwarden Ctrl-Shift-L autofill defaults to the most recently used entry when there are multiple matches, afaik.

You can indeed configure it on a per-item basis. The vault-wide setting you found is just the default for ones that don’t have an override set. Click on the domain/url matching setting in the individual credential and you can change it to exact host match.
