Abstract

Claims (75)

1. A system, comprising:

a computing device comprising a processor and a memory; and

machine-readable instructions stored in the memory that, when executed by the processor, cause the computing device to at least:

access an electronic form from a domain;

confirm a block list status of the domain;

determine, in response to the block list status being negative, an allow list status of the domain;

in response to the allow list status being positive, request domain information comprising data representative of an arrangement of fields in the electronic form;

receive the domain information comprising the data representative of the arrangement of fields in the electronic form;

scan for a plurality of fields within the electronic form;

determine whether the plurality of fields within the electronic form match the domain information comprising the data representative of the arrangement of fields in the electronic form;

receive data comprising a value that corresponds to at least one field of the plurality of fields; and

populate the at least one field in the electronic form using the data.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the machine-readable instructions that access the electronic form from the domain further cause the computing device to at least inject, in response to navigating to a webpage that contains the electronic form, a message receiver into the webpage.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the machine-readable instructions that scan for the plurality of fields within the electronic form further cause the computing device to at least:

receive field information from the message receiver;

identify that the at least one field does not have an exact match within the field information from the message receiver; and

determine that the at least one field has a match within at least a portion of the field information.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the machine-readable instructions that populate the at least one field in the electronic form using the data causes the computing device to at least autofill the electronic form according to machine learning principles.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the data is user account data and the machine-readable instructions further cause the computing device to at least:

display a plurality of user accounts;

receive, from a user input, a selection of a user account from the plurality of user accounts; and

wherein the receiving the user account data is in response to receiving the selection of the user account from the plurality of user accounts.

6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the machine-readable instructions further cause the computing device to at least:

authenticate a user via a login process;

display a plurality of transaction accounts responsive to successful authentication; and

receive a user selection of a transaction account from the displayed plurality of transaction accounts.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the data is a field map that matches the plurality of fields to a plurality of values.

8. A method, comprising:

accessing an electronic form from a domain;

confirming a block list status of the domain;

determining, in response to the block list status being negative, an allow list status of the domain;

in response to the allow list status being positive, requesting domain information comprising data representative of an arrangement of fields in the electronic form;

receiving the domain information comprising the data representative of the arrangement of fields in the electronic form;

scanning for a plurality of fields within the electronic form;

determining whether the plurality of fields within the electronic form match the domain information comprising the data representative of the arrangement of fields in the electronic form;

receiving data comprising a value that corresponds to at least one field of the plurality of fields; and

populating the at least one field in the electronic form using the data.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein accessing the electronic form from the domain further comprises injecting a message receiver into a webpage for the domain in response to navigating to the webpage that contains the electronic form.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein scanning for the plurality of fields within the electronic form further comprises:

receiving field information from the message receiver;

identifying that the at least one field does not have an exact match within the field information from the message receiver; and

determining that the at least one field has a match within at least a portion of the field information.

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein 1 , wherein populating the at least one field in the electronic form using the data further comprises autofilling the electronic form according to machine learning principles.

12. The method of claim 8 , wherein the data is user account data, the user account data is received in response to receiving a selection of a user account from a plurality of user accounts, and the method further comprises:

displaying the plurality of user accounts; and

receiving, from a user input, the selection of the user account from the plurality of user accounts.

13. The method of claim 12 , further comprising:

authenticating a user via a login process;

displaying a plurality of transaction accounts responsive to successful authentication; and

receiving a user selection of a transaction account from the displayed plurality of transaction accounts.

14. The method of claim 8 , wherein the data is a field map that matches the plurality of fields to a plurality of values.

15. A non-transitory, computer-readable medium, comprising machine-readable instructions that, when executed by a processor of a computing device, cause the computing device to at least:

access an electronic form from a domain;

confirm a block list status of the domain;

determine, in response to the block list status being negative, an allow list status of the domain;

in response to the allow list status being positive, request domain information comprising data representative of an arrangement of fields in the electronic form;

receive the domain information comprising the data representative of the arrangement of fields in the electronic form;

scan for a plurality of fields within the electronic form;

determine whether the plurality of fields within the electronic form match the domain information comprising the data representative of the arrangement of fields in the electronic form;

receive data comprising a value that corresponds to at least one field of the plurality of fields; and

populate the at least one field in the electronic form using the data.

16. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the machine-readable instructions that access the electronic form from the domain further cause the computing device to at least inject, in response to navigating to a webpage that contains the electronic form, a message receiver into the webpage.

17. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the machine-readable instructions that scan for the plurality of fields within the electronic form further cause the computing device to at least:

receive field information from the message receiver;

identify that the at least one field does not have an exact match within the field information from the message receiver; and

determine that the at least one field has a match within at least a portion of the field information.

18. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the data is a field map that matches the plurality of fields to a plurality of values.

19. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the data is user account data and the machine-readable instructions further cause the computing device to at least:

display a plurality of user accounts;

receive, from a user input, a selection of a user account from the plurality of user accounts; and

wherein the receiving the user account data is in response to receiving the selection of the user account from the plurality of user accounts.

20. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 19 , wherein the machine-readable instructions further cause the computing device to at least:

authenticate a user via a login process;

display a plurality of transaction accounts responsive to successful authentication; and

receive a user selection of a transaction account from the displayed plurality of transaction accounts.
