4 years agoHow do you search a particular vault
In 1Password 7.x the search function seemed to work for what vault you were currently in. Now it seems to search all vaults. How can I just search 1 particular vault? Thank you.

4 years agoHi. Thank you for your comment. I have to respectfully say this is terrible. First off, I am such a strong advocate of 1Password for years and years, and originally brought it into our organization. I also never see us using any other alternative.
However, this new search is an utter mess. We have thousands of entries, and some of our vaults have hundreds and hundreds. With all our vaults, I guess I can honestly say I only use about 5 constantly a day. However even searching for an item constrained for those 5 vaults is still a mess.
Lets take a simple example and say you have 2 vaults only in a collection, and each simply has one entry called "root". Even doing a search on the collection of 2 vaults you will get back 2 entires of root. And certainly dont want to now how to preface the description for each user root as "root for applciation 1" "root for application 2", as that is point of it being in a vault, we already know "root" is for aplication 1 as its in the application 1 vault.
It is an absolute terrible design. We really need to be able to search directly in a single vault like we did last time. Collections will not solve this problem.
