# Log in to an account manually

{% hint style="info" %}
**Who can use this feature?**

* Workspace **Owners**, **Super Admins**, **Admins**, **Users**, **Login-Only**, and **Guest Users**
* Account **Owners** and **Collaborators**
* Supported using the Cerby browser extension
  {% endhint %}

As an account **Owner** or **Collaborator**, you can log in to your account manually using the Cerby browser extension.

This assisted experience is intended for scenarios where [automated login](/cerby-browser-extension/accounts/accessing-your-accounts/log-in-to-an-account-automatically.md) cannot be completed, either because it involves a [self-managed account](https://help.cerby.com/getting-started/concepts/credential-management/accounts#h-079d120056) or the app requires manual intervention due to recent user interface (UI) updates.

The following are the available options to log in manually using the Cerby browser extension:

* [Copying the login credentials from the extension popup](#copying-the-login-credentials-from-the-extension-popup)
* [Filling in the login credentials using the inline menu](#filling-in-the-login-credentials-using-the-inline-menu)

The following sections describe each option.

## Copying the login credentials from the extension popup

To log in to an account by copying the login credentials from the extension popup, you must complete the following steps:

1. Open your app’s login page.
2. Copy your login credentials from the Cerby browser extension and paste them into your app’s login page by completing the following steps:
   1. Log in to your workspace in the Cerby browser extension. For instructions, read the article [Log in to the Cerby browser extension](/cerby-browser-extension/installation/log-in-to-the-cerby-browser-extension.md).
   2. Click the corresponding account card.

   3. Click the **Copy** () icon of the **Username** field. The username is copied to the clipboard.
   4. Paste the username in your app’s login page.
