I just updated Ubuntu. And immediately after I logged into my Ubuntu session, I got a prompt asking me for my password with the User Name field automatically filled with my Gmail email.

How can I figure out which application is asking me for my password before I input it?

As you can see from the screenshot below, there's no info whatsoever about the application that triggered the dialog.

  • do you have chrome services running in the background? – ravery Oct 24 '17 at 15:43
  • "without any action from my side" ... you logged in. A number of things happen at login: email clients startup, GNOME's integration with online accounts for calendars, etc. activates, and so on. – muru Oct 24 '17 at 15:43

I ended up using the apport-bug command to figure this out.

I ran apport-bug -w and then clicked on the dialog afterwards. This generated the following bug report which contains the path to the executable at /usr/bin/gnome-calendar.
