I'm a parent. When I try to log into Canvas LMS using a password manager and Safari, the Canvas password field doesn't get the password entered/pasted into it, meaning I have to open the password manager to copy and paste the password it into the form. The problem is that you're incorrectly using the role="textbox" attribute on the password input element. That role is designed to mark up non-input elements into <input type="text"> elements. You don't need that ARIA attribute, and it can be safely removed. In investigating the bug, deleting the role attribute in dev tools resolves this issue and the password manager works as designed.
It would be great if you could update the input form to remove the incorrect role attribute.
Password manager: 1Password.
Browser: Safari 17.6
macOS: 14.6.1
Thanks
