app:// linking support in version 8

With prior versions of 1Password, I used entered app:// URLs as additional websites. That way, when an application was selected, I could click the 1Password icon in the menu bar and quickly get access to the relevant passwords. However, with version 8, when I pull up the new "quick access" pane with an app open, I don't see any of the passwords appear.

Is there any way to replicate this behavior in version 8?


1Password Version: 8.7.0
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 12.3

    Hey 1P_PeterG - I don't think there's necessarily any link to be clicked in this use case. What would be awesome is if I could somehow set certain passwords to have an associated MacOS application. Then, when I trigger quick access, those items would be quickly visible without having to search for them.

    Hi @blimmer, thanks for this request. This functionality is not currently a part of 1Password 8, and the decision not to allow links to be clickable unless they begin with http or https is intentional. In part, it's meant to prevent situations where a malicious URL in a shared item might be used to execute commands on your system.

    With that said, we always want to find ways to support your use case - so I have submitted your request for consideration so our security specialists can discuss how best this might be done. Thank you for letting us know this is a priority for you!
