I am trying to open a webpage from my JavaScript function:
function fillText() {
window.open("https://Somerandonwebsite.com/task");
}
The webpage : "https://Somerandonwebsite.com/task" has a text box with the following tag:
<input type="text" id="titleBox" autocomplete="off" aria-label="Title Field" title="" placeholder="Enter Title" aria-invalid="true">
I want to add string "Title created" to the text box with the id titleBox
How can I achieve this in the function? I am also confused whether to add the string first and open webpage or open webpage and access text box to fill my string
How can I access text box to fill this string into the text box on opening web page?

As @Carsten Løvbo Andersen's comment said if you own both sites, you can just pass some query strings from your function to your site. E.G.
function fillText() {
window.open("https://Somerandonwebsite.com/task?string=yourString");
}
Then, at your Somerandonwebsite.com, simply create a script:
var input = document.getElementById("titleBox");
const params = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search)
input.value = params.get("string")
This will make your text box display your query string named string
