Open a file or a folder after clicking

Hey @JIM0033, thanks for reaching out.

This is not something that can be done using 1Password. Could you tell me a little more about your use case for this? I could then pass that along to our product team as a feature request.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hello. Thank you for your 1st level response.

More explanations : when you click on a "URL" field, I'd like the Windows files explorer to open in a new window (a bit like "Open file location" in the Windows file right click) or even better: open the Word, Excel, Pdf file directly, for example.
The url would be constructed like this: "C:\Users___\OneDrive\Documents...." or ""C:\Users___\OneDrive\Documents\User guide.pdf".

Best regards.

Hey @JIM0033, thanks for the additional details.

While I can't make any promises, I've gone ahead and submitted a feature request on your behalf for our product teams consideration.

Let me know if you have any further questions or suggestions.

I'd appreciate this feature too.

My use case is to make it as easy as possible for family to access my SMB shared network drive at home and on the road. I have already set up https://tailscale.com/kb/1081/magicdns/, and have shared the network drive login/username/URL in a 1Password shared vault, but it's one extra step to try and help people understand they need to copy the URL from 1Password, open Windows Explorer, then paste it into Windows Explorer's hidden address bar. Would be great if they could simply click the URL and have it automatically open in Windows Explorer (and the equivalent for Mac). I can access my network share from Android as well with Samsung Files, but I have my doubts Android/iPhone would support that sufficiently. In which case,

The URLs I've tried adding to 1Password item so far (actual names replaced with examples):
* Open in a browser instead of file explorer (and do not work since they use https:// instead of file://
* \\familySynology\nas-main\
* \\familySynology.yak-bebop.ts.net\nas-main\
* Only give a "Copy" option in 1Password, not "Open" like most URLs
* file://familySynology/nas-main
* file://familySynology.yak-bebop.ts.net/nas-main/

Hi @nukmicah,

Thanks for your reply and +1 for this feature. I've also filed a feature request with the team on your behalf.

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

URIs using the https://www.iana.org/assignments/uri-schemes/prov/smb, like smb://server/path/ already work in 1Password on Linux (and presumably MacOS). Perhaps these could be supported by 1Pass on Windows by passing them in a converted format (\\server\path\) to Explorer.

Unsure what should be added to the clipboard upon copy, as Windows doesn't natively support smb: by default. Maybe it could bring up a small dialogue to choose between the two formats.

Thank you for your reply.
