It's a way to generate one-time password tokens like the ones you can obtain with Microsoft authenticator or authy for extra login security.

Keepass has a feature to also generate OTPs which is handy.
https://keepass.info/help/base/placeholders.html#otp

It would be great (don't know if possible/effort) for keepass to give you the translated placeholder/field reference with the real value

Another use I give to placeholders/field references is having one password value in one keepass entry and then using a field reference of that password entry in another keepass entry, that way if I change the password in one place I don't have to update all the other entries.

@Redirts.
I took a look at the KeePass library, however, I didn't find anything that would allow me to retrieve/generate an OTP.

However, I am thinking of an alternative. I might create a new action to generate the OTP by retrieving the secret and length stored in KeePass from the entry.
The downside is that I need to check which ones I would be able to code in .NET.
