how to prevent identity cards from being suggested by autofill

Question

Hi gang, I've been using Identities for years with 1Password, and have archived a bunch of identities that are only there for historical reference - every five years I have to dig up addresses I lived at (green card application, then citizenship application, etc), so I like having a full-fidelity record of where I lived when, what phone numbers and emails and employee IDs I had in past lives...

That said, I have two "current identities" I haven't archived (current employer details, and my Known Traveller Number), and I don't want to forget they're still in 1Password. I'd really like to keep them in my primary vault - but I'd even be OK with a secondary vault (if I could figure out how to configure a vault to "never suggest items in this vault"). I have a nasty habit of forgetting those Identities exist in the Archive when I'm filling out conference details - I only seem to remember when I'm under threat of deportation :)

But I find that the 1Password browser extension still seems to like to suggest these two non-Archived identities whenever I'm in a complicated web form that's asking for something more than email or password. It's especially irritating when mobile Safari is already suggesting all the personal info from my Contact info so well, and then the 1password overlay interferes with Identity info that's not relevant.

Is there any way to mark an Identity record "don't suggest" - whether in my primary Vault or a secondary one?

I love the way that Logins have such granular Autofill behaviour, and I dream of the day this same conditional logic could be applied to these active Identity records.

Hello @MikeTheCanuck! 👋Thanks for the question! Archiving the item would be the best option since it allows you to keep the item saved in case you need it but it won't be suggested when filling forms in the browser. The next best option would likely be to create a new vault, move those items into that vault, and then exclude that vault from 1Password in the browser: Open Safari and open any webpage.Tap on the page settings button in the address bar and then tap on 1Password.Tap on the menu button (it looks like a circle with three lines) and then tap Settings. Tap Accounts & vaults. Turn off the new vault that you just created.I love the way that Logins have such granular Autofill behaviour, and I dream of the day this same conditional logic could be applied to these active Identity records.Thanks for the feedback! While I can't make any promises, I've filed a feature request on your behalf. 🙂-Daveref: PB-45070480
