Passkey beta available?

I'm using 1Password Nightly on my mac and saw this prompt on a few of my logins to switch to passkeys.

However, I don't see any new behavior in my browser (also using the beta extension) and the information link (https://support.1password.com/save-fill-passkeys/) goes to a 404 page. Is passkey support out yet on beta?


1Password Version: 1Password for Mac 8.10.7 (81007017)
Extension Version: Beta 2.11.0
OS Version: macOS Ventura 13.3.1 (a)
Browser:_ Chrome 113.0.5672.92
Referrer: forum-search:Passkey beta available

Hello @asportnoy! 👋

Thank you for using the nightly and for reporting this! Our team is planning to publish that article in the future as we get closer to the official release of passkey support in June.

As a reminder, using the nightly means that you'll see features that are under development and that are not fully finished and that might mean running into rough edges like this broken link. We're excited to share passkeys with everyone soon! 🙂

Got it. Will nightly get access to it before the June 6th release?

@asportnoy, @oliverames, and @faquick

If you haven't already, I suggest signing up for our passwordless newsletter: Passwordless newsletter

The newsletter, before anywhere else, is where we'll announce passkey availability as the feature opens up in the various beta versions. 😊

I'd understood that Passkeys support would be offered today on desktop versions, but apparently it only concerns extensions for Chrome and Firefox (but still no beta for Safari).
Do you have a date for the macOS version of the app?

Solved - needed to be running TestFlight from the App store and then follow this link [https://testflight.apple.com/join/wdCBan7N] from the 1Password Blog.

Hi folks!

Indeed; I'm excited to share that today we are bringing saving and signing in with passkeys to 1Password in your (desktop) browser. Additionally Watchtower in the apps has been updated to let you know when you have a Login saved for a site that has passkeys available. Additional details can be found in today's blog post:

Save and Sign In with Passkeys Using 1Password In the Browser

There are lots of new and interesting things we're planning with passkeys; this is just the first step. 😃

I'm not seeing Passkey notifications from Watchtower. I'm running the Safari Beta Extension released today and Production for the Desktop App since there doesn't seem to be a current beta? What are those Watchtower notifications supposed to look like? I don't see any references to Passkeys in Watchtower via the Desktop app. I'm a bit confused...

Yep, same here!
