Is it possible to log in with 1PW passkey similar to MSA? (UX wise to improve convenience)

Hello @mark24332! 👋

Thanks for the question! I believe that Microsoft Authenticator can only perform that sort of push notification for Microsoft accounts and not other accounts. Let me know if I have that wrong.

A website's server would need to send a push notification to the passkey manager (such as 1Password) in order to generate a notification on the user's iPhone. I'm not aware of any industry standard for this sort of authentication method as there is with the FIDO passkey standard that 1Password and other managers use.

What would be the use case for this sort of process? Isn't it easier to use 1Password in the browser to sign in to a website using a passkey rather than needing to approve a notification from your phone?

Hi Dave, thanks for taking the time to respond. You’re right this is unique for MS services. After a secondary thought I cannot come up with a good use when this would be beneficial. 🤔

Hey @mark24332,

Thank you for getting back to us, on behalf of Dave you are welcome.

Let us know if you have any further suggestions, we'd love to hear your thoughts!

Thanks Steph. I should have given it a bit more thought before throwing in. 😅 But thanks for the response. I think I was just thinking of a way to speed up the login process as use case but you are right it is a bit counterintuitive having to pick your phone for it all the time. Plus I learned there is no industry standard. Thanks for the great product 1Password is. 🫶
