iTerm Configured for SSH But Quick Access Not Using

on my macOS I have iTerm configured as "Open SSH URLs with" and the standard app honors this configuration. When I open an SSH URL with Quick Access it always uses Terminal.

    I found a solution to this problem by accident today.

    Go to iTerm2 --> Settings --> Profiles --> General and  look for the option "URL schemes." From there you can select "ssh." Once you click that, you should get a macOS popup that confirms the change: "iTerm is not the default handler for ssh..." Once you click "OK" iTerm should now handle ssh from 1Password's Quick Access.

    Previously, I hadn't considered that Quick Access was just throwing this to the OS to decide. I also didn't know "Open SSH URLs with" was limited in this respect.
