3 years agoDisable "Sign in with a passkey" popup completely
Is there any way to disable this? It's adding an unnecessary step/click to an otherwise working yubikey 2FA workflow. It shouldn't hijack the prompt to click a 2FA key.
As a feature request I'd like an option "never ask me this again" for these types of popups, or an option to disable them completely.

Whoopsie unpassword I misread your posting. I somehow missed the middle sentence altogether. I have not seen that behavior mentioned before. If you turn it off and quit the browser then follow that with a start the browser does it stay off?

I did this already and it worked. Then it just turned itself back on. Which is what prompted me to create an account here and post.

Let us know how that works for you.

Ok, vie email support I've got what looks like the thing we were looking for: how to disable it.
Individual team members can configure 1Password in the browser to not save or sign in with any passkeys. Right click the 1Password icon in the browser toolbar > Settings > Autofill > disable "Save and sign in with passkeys". Repeat this process in other browsers or browser profiles, since the setting is stored per installation of the extension.

If 1Password is already unlocked, and you don’t have a passkey saved for the website, then you’ll be able to use your normal authentication flow right away.
I keep 1Password locked as much as possible for security reasons, and I don't think it's a wise workaround to ask users to keep 1Password unlocked to get around this issue.

I hope that helps! 🙂
I am sorry, 1P_Dave, but no, this does not help.
I think OP was clear in the subject when saying disable and completely. What you offer is a workaround that still pushes us to do one extra action during our everyday work flow.
So, I reinforce the question: how to disable this unwanted feature completely?
I don't need to click something extra when the point of having a physical token (YubiKey in my case) is to make the authentication easier. 1Password is getting in the way for no reason and I would like to go back to normal. Can 1Password help us here?

+1 too, I have to use a yubikey 2-3 times a day, and invariably I've locked my machine (and in turn the 1Password extension) so it messes with my workflow every time. Would like to have the option to switch it off.
EDIT: I re-read earlier comments and saw it can be switched off (which I did), so this ask is less urgent in my eyes now. That said, "Don't show me this again" would have been a better experience for me.

+1 here. I use TouchID for 2FA, also via Duo. 1Password doesn't know anything about that passkey, but is unnecessarily inserting itself in the middle of the workflow. I would love to have some more granular control here.

This morning it happened again, even though I disabled it my extension. Here's a screenshot of what happens when I go to my web app, which redirects to Duo. Out of habit, I touch my Yubikey but instead I get these two pop-ups and have to close 1Password and then click the Yubikey icon to proceed. So what was once a very streamlined login - click my bookmark, touch my yubikey - now takes two clicks dismissing these things and then I can touch my yubikey and proceed.

+1 with this issue.
On a business account and 1Password is hijacking my Duo hardware key prompts. Using Edge on a Mac.
Normally I click on a bookmark, page starts loading, redirects to Duo, I tap my yubikey, and login proceeds.
Now what happens is 1Password takes over, wants me to unlock, which brings-up the main 1Password window. I have to close that, and then click on the little Yubikey icon, which then brings back the normal hardware key prompt in the browser.
Ideally we can tell it to ignore on certain sites/domains. For now, I disabled the Passkey functionality completely in the browser extension. This allows me to go about my day-to-day without disruption to my workflow. However, I'm interested in eventually using Passkeys for other sites.
