Hello everyone, 

If you installed 1Password for Linux or your browser using a containerized package manager such as Snap or Flatpak, the app won’t be able to communicate with the 1Password browser extension. To use 1Password for Linux with the 1Password browser extension, make sure you install both 1Password for Linux and your preferred browser using an installation method other than Snap or Flatpak, such as through your distribution’s built-in package manager. You can find documentation here: 


We’re aware this limitation isn’t ideal, and a feature request is open explore expanding support for other installation methods in the future. We appreciate everyone's continued feedback!
