Is there a way to set a default Vault for my searches

I have my husband and mother on 1Password all with separate vaults.  When I search my 1password, i'm seeing everyone's login and passwords. Is there a way to set it in searching so only my vault info shows up?

 

I'm on 1Password for Mac 8.10.68

I'm up to date on Mac OS Sequoia 15.3.2.

  • Hello bouynxdor! 👋

    Thanks for reaching out! You can choose which accounts and vaults appear when when using 1Password in the browser by following these steps: 

    1. Open your browser.
    2. Right-click on the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar and click Settings
    3. Click Accounts & vaults.
    4. Select only the vault that you'd like to use in that browser. 


    Note that this will affect both search in the pop-up as well as limit the suggestions that you see when signing into websites.

    Thanks AJC. I already knew how to do that search. The question is, can i make my vault the default in searches so that i'm not always switching from ALL accounts to my specific vault.

    When you say that they have "separate" vaults, do you mean that you share vaults with each of them, or that they each have Private a vault (which they should by default)?
    In the former case, these are your vaults, so an account-wide search will show results from all your vaults. In the latter case, you should never see any results from their Private vaults.

    In the application, the top search bar with the "Search in [Your account name]" text is the account-wide search. If you want to search a single vault, then in the middle pane to the right of the All Categories drop-down, there is a magnifying glass with lines on the left which has hover text "Find in Private" or "Find in" the name of your selected vault.
    In the plugin, the search bar with the "Search in [Your account name]" is the account-wide search. If you want to search a single vault, then click the account name in the top left corner for a drop-down menu from which you can select a vault. You should see the search text change to "Search in [vault name]".
