*Specification*
https://wicg.github.io/autofill-event

*Summary*
Autofill is a key feature of the web that reduces friction for millions of
users everyday. But getting autofill to work reliably with dynamic forms
across multiple implementations requires jumping through many hoops. This
feature adds an "autofill" event that would allow developers to modify
their forms to fit the autofilled data and let the browser know when they
have done so.

*Blink component*
Blink <https://issues.chromium.org/issues?q=customfield1222907:%22Blink%22>

*Web Feature ID*
Missing feature

*TAG review*
https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/1197

*TAG review status*
Pending

*Origin Trial Name*
Autofill Event

*Goals for experimentation*
We want to gather real-life experience with the API, and gain insights
into:
* Working with the API compared to legacy methods (e.g. honeypot fields,
autofill detection, etc)
* Working with autofill extensions

*Chromium Trial Name*
AutofillEvent

*Origin Trial documentation link*

*WebFeature UseCounter name*
kAutofillEvent

*Risks*


*Interoperability and Compatibility*
*No information provided*

*Gecko*: No signal (
https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/1361)

*WebKit*: No signal (
https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/431)

*Web developers*: No signals

*Other signals*:

*WebView application risks*

Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such that
it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications?
*No information provided*


*Reason this experiment is being extended*
As Shopify experimented with the API, we got encouraging positive results
<https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1wtghSYKuoASf8lKY3ghMDk5G5QquBsU-wwI4JOxL590/edit?slide=id.p#slide=id.p>
that
convinced us that the API is worthwhile to continue pursuing. The OT
extension would enable us to continue collect data, convince more address
form providers to join the trial and work on advancing shipping artifacts.

*Ongoing technical constraints*
None

*Debuggability*
*No information provided*

*Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac,
Linux, ChromeOS, Android, and Android WebView)?*
No
WebViews have a slightly different behavior as they don't yet support
autofill retriggering.

*Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests
<https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md>?*
No
Currently the feature is only tested using browser tests. There's a
web-driver bidi proposal to enable its testing:
https://github.com/w3c/webdriver-bidi/pull/706/
We're planning to incorporate this proposal into the feature's
specification.
