Question

Passkeys with Facebook/Meta

I’m at a complete loss. I allowed 1Password to create a passkey for my facebook account but when another app wants to use my facebook login and it asks for username and password, the only thing I can see now is the passkey and that won’t work. This passkey system is garbage. I keep running into similar problems where I’ve created a passkey for a site but the next time I try to login it’s asking for the password which I no longer have. I’ve got useless passkeys piling up, because every time I go back I have to reset the password to get in and the next time around it asks me to create a passkey which is then useless the next time I log in.

Hi ​@neploxo,

To confirm, when you saved the passkey into 1Password, did you update your existing Login item (the one that had your username and password saved in it) to have the passkey, or did you save the passkey as a new item?

If you updated your existing item, it should have saved the passkey into the item, but not removed the password, as you can have a passkey saved in an item that also has a password field. If the password did disappear, could you check the item history for that item and see if it was removed when the passkey was added?

Looking forward to your reply.

Passkeys cannot function within an iframe. You are likely using the “apps browser agent” to sign into Meta and then into the app; consequently, the on-device passkey fails because of the iframe context. I suggest relying on SMS verification during login with Meta or Google when operating in another app’s native browser agent window.
