9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

outputting the menu of commands to the user interface of the connected keyboard based on a state of the host application associated with the connected keyboard and a user context.

10. A system, comprising:

a memory; and

at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to:

receive a request for a record in a server application at a user interface of a connected keyboard displayed by a host application, the connected keyboard being displayed in a state for receiving user input;

access credentials in a credential database from the connected keyboard based on the request for the record;

transmit the request for the record to the server application from the connected keyboard based on the credentials;

receive the record from the server application at the connected keyboard; and

output the record from the connected keyboard at the host application.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein to output the at least one processor is further configured to:

output a text representation of the record and a deep link to the record in the server application from the connected keyboard.

12. The system of claim 10 , the at least one processor further configured to:

log in to the server application based on the credentials in the credential database.

13. The system of claim 10 , wherein to receive the record the at least one processor is further configured to:

receive the record in JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) or an Extensible Markup Language (XML) data format over a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) connection or a HTTP Secure (HTTPS) connection.

14. The system of claim 10 , the at least one processor further configured to:

receive a user input, wherein the user gesture is based on a force touch press at the user interface of the connected keyboard;

output a menu of commands to the user interface of the connected keyboard in response to the receiving the user input; and

receive the request for the record based on a user selection of a command in the menu of commands in the user interface of the connected keyboard.

15. The system of claim 10 , the at least one processor further configured to:

generate an image representation of the record using a tile software extension associated with the connected keyboard.

16. The system of claim 15 , wherein to output the at least one processor is further configured to:

output the image representation of the record from the connected keyboard.

17. A non-transitory computer-readable device having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by at least one computing device, causes the at least one computing device to perform operations comprising:

receiving a request for a record in a server application at a user interface of a connected keyboard displayed by a host application, the connected keyboard being displayed in a state for receiving user input;

accessing credentials in a credential database from the connected keyboard based on the request for the record;

transmitting the request for the record to the server application from the connected keyboard based on the credentials;

receiving the record from the server application at the connected keyboard; and

outputting the record from the connected keyboard at the host application.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable device of claim 17 , the outputting comprising:

outputting a text representation of the record and a deep link to the record in the server application from the connected keyboard.

19. The non-transitory computer-readable device of claim 17 , the operations further comprising:

generating an image representation of the record using a tile software extension associated with the connected keyboard.

20. The non-transitory computer-readable device of claim 17 , the operations further comprising:

receiving a user input, wherein the user input is based on a force touch press at a user interface of the connected keyboard;
