Feature Request: Choose between multiple passkeys (different accounts) for same website

I am excited to see passkey support in 1Password! Thanks for leading the charge 1Password Team!

I have multiple Google accounts - one for email and one I do not give to anyone to secure my Google services. I set up the second account to use a passkey and saved it to 1Password and all went well. I was able to sign out and then sign back in successfully. I then set up the first account to use a passkey and saved it to 1Password. Saving the passkey went well but trying to sign out and sign back in did not work as expected. 1Password did not give me the option to choose which Google account's passkey I wanted presented and it presented the second account's passkey over and over again. Did I miss a step?

@Hilary_1P pls take into account that the passkey should not be available if it's stored in an inactive vault so we can skip unnecessary account selection. The current behaviour is frustrating because it keeps picking the passkey that should be disabled together with the vault.

@XIII I've merged my work into the main branch so it should be available in Nightly either today or tomorrow!

@dangh I've also merged a fix to exclude disabled vaults from the sign in flow :) That should be in Nightly soon as well!

I unfortunately won't be able to keep checking in on this thread as often as I'd like, so apologies in advance if you don't hear from me about more updates. But the Product and Support teams monitor these forums so hopefully all other concerns are addressed :)

Thank you for doing that and notifying everyone here!

Will try tomorrow (if available).

PS: Does Nightly refer to the channel of the App, the browser extension, or both?

Changed the Release Channel to Nightly for the (macOS) App (and updated the App afterwards), but can't find Nightly builds of the Safari (or Firefox) browser extension...

This set up does not support multiple passkeys for 1 site it seems. Or do I need to wait one more day?

@Hilary_1P Sorry to tag you, but the Support team did not answer yet and I'm eager to try your new functionality...

What do we need to install/configure to test this in Safari (or Firefox) on macOS?

(tried two days in row with Nightly App and beta extension, but 1Password still auto-selects a passkey)

Hi @XIII

As it stands we have nightly builds available for Chrome. We don't have any immediate plans for nightly builds for Safari or Firefox, but these changes should be making their way through to betas (and ultimately stable releases) soon. 🤞

Thanks for answering!

Then I’ll have to patient…

With the nightly build, choosing between accounts works really well on GitHub, but if there's only one option, like on Google, where the email is already selected, I think the step could be skipped like before.

Hi @DoppelKomma

Thanks for letting us know!

The reason we're now asking you to choose even when there is only result is to confirm you do actually want to be logged in. The thought is that a website could send a request and force you to browse it while logged in, if you have a Login for that site. By having the you consent to the authentication, you have the choice of browsing the site anonymously or logged in.
