Cannot create/save a passkey for Tailscale in Brave

I cannot create a new passkey for Tailscale in Brave. Every time I try to create a new passkey login in Tailscale, the 1PW window initially pops up, but an error message appears below asking me to try again. If I click on that button, I get the Windows prompt to save the passkey to my windows device via Windows hello instead of saving it in 1PW.

I've successfully created passkeys before for other sites in Brave, so I'm guessing the problem is related to how Tailscale is interacting with the browser and Windows 11/Hello.

I also note that Tailscale says to create the passkey via an incognito browser window, however if I do that, I think the 1PW extension is disabled?


1Password Version: 1Password for Windows 8.10.50 (81050025)
Extension Version: 8.10.52.25
OS Version: Windows on ARM 24H2 Build 26100.2314
Browser: Brave 1.73.89

    Hello, gmtom1_808. Thank you for writing in. I'm sorry about the issue you're encountering with 1Password in the browser.

    Could you please check if the issue persists when using a different browser? Additionally, you can turn on the 1Password extension to work in incognito mode. Here's how:

    1. Right-click the 1Password icon in Brave's toolbar and select Manage Extension.
    2. Toggle the Allow in Private option.

    Let me know how that goes.
