Support for Orion Browser

Hi @1P_Mitch @ag_Christian,

Any update on the progress of stabilizing the 1Password integration with "untrusted" browsers, specifically using Orion on macOS?

I, along with many other users, are seeing the same behavior that @vividluck5412 is seeing in https://1password.community/discussion/comment/691541/#Comment_691541.

This is beta software and issues are to be expected, obviously. However, it's been over a month since the feature was placed in beta and I have not seen any acknowledgment of the issue(s) nor any improvements with the behavior.

It would be great if we could receive confirmation that 1Password is aware of the issues and actively working to resolve them. Additionally, any sort of estimate on timeframe would be much appreciated, you have real customers who are waiting on this functionality to improve their workflows.

@jjthejet: I appreciate the question. There are two parts to this ongoing effort:

1. Allowing 1Password to connect securely to any browser that you trust.
2. Improving compatibility of the 1Password extension with specific web browsers.

We have been fixing bugs and making improvements to #1, and I can share with you that we are on track to bring this feature to production (likely through 1Password Labs) soon.

The second piece is more complicated since it's a responsibility that's shared with the browser developers. For our part, we aim to make 1Password compatible with the WebExtensions spec that most browsers implement. But each browser is unique, especially ones like Orion that are not simple forks of Chromium.

When we learn about issues with 1Password in a browser, we reach out to the developers to work it out, and we have been in communication with Vlad from Orion about every issue we've found or that has been reported to us. A lot of improvements have been made to bring us from zero support to where things stand today, so I am optimistic that compatibility will continue to improve.

@1P_Mitch: Thank you for your thoughtful response, it's much appreciated.

I've been using it since you enabled the functionality and the auto-fill functionality is hit or miss. I trust you're working through issues so only mention it here in case there are any patterns that could be helpful in troubleshooting.

For example...
It won't auto-fill anything on AWS or Twilio. The dropdown doesn't show and clicking the extension icon shows relevant accounts to choose from but clicking "Autofill" doesn't do anything.

It will show the dropdown but won't auto-fill passwords on LinkedIn. It does fill-in the email.

The extension is completely disabled on Google and latticehq.com (an HR tool) and I can't even click on it.

I haven't been able to get the "Logs in with Google" functionality to work or have it fill forms with credit cards stored in my vault.

@vividluck5412 I have noticed that when unlocking 1Password through the extension, I often have to refresh the page for autofill to work. But even then, sometimes, I have to click on each individual field and fill them one-by-one.

Just adding that I'd love to see full and seamless Orion support on Mac.

@jmanes Thanks for the tip.

Refreshing the page got the auto-fill working for AWS and Twilio. Admittedly, it's a little hit or miss since it doesn't seem to work on all sites but for those that it does, it's really nice.

I'm using the Orion RC on Sonoma. I followed the Orion guide to whitelist the Orion browser within 1P. However, in Orion the 1P menu bar icon works, however, no credential fields have the 1P lock icon and auto fill doesn't work on ANY site. This is with 1P 8.10.18.

Any news on getting passkeys to work, as https://1password.community/discussion/comment/691540/#Comment_691540 in July too? I'm now forced to open these sites in another browser - logging in simply won't work in Orion.

Passkeys for Orion browser with MacOS Sonoma... Please...
