Hi @TimBatist, I am currently facing the same situation and as far as I was able to confirm, it is currently not possible to set up 1Password X (browser extension) with specific settings.

macOS: /Users/$USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Profile/Extensions/aeblfdkhhhdcdjpifhhbdiojplfjncoa/2.3.0_0{app,background}

Windows: C:\Users[login_name]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\aeblfdkhhhdcdjpifhhbdiojplfjncoa/2.3.0_0{app,background}

Above, you will find the location of the files related to 1Password X on macOS and Windows 10/11. The Chrome extension settings are set by app.js and background.js.

As we speak, those are minified JS files so there is not much configuration available for automation in those files.

@Joy_1P, it would be great if the 1Password X devs could put the available settings in, e.g., a JSON file that would then be parsed by the JS files. It would definitely help automating onboarding process/deploying 1Password.
