Firefox & Chromium on Linux Issues with windows.cloud.microsoft

This has been annoying me so much lately I had to post something about it. When working in an azure virtual machine with a browser that has the 1Password extension enabled the extension is detecting a password event for some actions I do within the virtual machine which aren't password related. I'm working off Linux but I'm sure it would happen on a wintel box as well. 

Triggers for this behaviour I've encountered so far:

  • Entering a UNC value into the file explorer address bar
  • Entering a search term or URL into a browser address bar
  • Entering text into a search provider like Bing

As you can imagine this is pretty annoying when you're trying to get work done. 

If I could also suggest that if you are targetting MSPs you want to detect which username the user has picked when doing an auth with O365/Azure and give them the appropriate password, as they will have a LOT of O365 accounts.

    I'm sorry that you're running into issues when running a virtual machine in your browser. Are you able to hide 1Password on the virtual machine page by right-clicking on the page and selecting 1Password - Password Manager > Hide on this page

    Then you can install and run 1Password inside of the virtual machine itself. Let me know if that doesn't work, I don't have access to an Azure virtual machine myself so I haven't been able to test this.

    Can you tell me which sign-in page you're using? When you use 1Password in the browser and click on a Login item on the Microsoft username page, 1Password should fill the appropriate password for that same account on the next page.
