4 years agoFeature Request: Add drag and drop file attachments
Am I doing something wrong? I'm trying to drag and drop attachments onto items, but it does not work. Instead I have to click the + add more button and go to Attach a File. That's a lot more time than dragging and dropping.

PLEASE bring this back! This is the biggest downgrade ever for 1P. I just added a new software license and cannot drag and drop the supporting emails into the entry. I am NOT going to save the email somewhere just to be able to point to it when I "Add a file" to an entry. This is the most confounding, frustrating, disappointing thing that 1P8 doesn't do. I don't really understand taking away features when upgrading an app. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring this back sooner rather than later!

Thank you for following up. I don't have any updates to share at the moment about this feature request but I've let the product team know that you're still hoping to see the feature added to 1Password 8 in the future.

Any update? I really, really, really miss this—now to add any kind of file from, say, DEVONthink, I have to export it, then import it—what a drag (or lack thereof)!
It doesn't make sense to "upgrade" an app by removing functionality.
Thanks!

PS: also described as an "open feature request" here, with no update:

You can certainly add my vote as well! I always used drag and drop with emails into 1P and now have to save the email before I can upload it to 1P as an attachment. THIS IS TERRIBLE! PLEASE bring back drag and drop!

Hello @"Mr. K." 👋
1Password 8 currently doesn't support adding files to an item using drag and drop. We do have an internal tracking item for this feature and I've added your vote there to let the product team know that this is something that you'd like to see.
In the meantime, as you mentioned, you can add a file by selecting Attach a File from the menu. 🙂
