Microsoft account setup for Passkey

Hello

How can I save Passkey for my personal and business Microsoft accounts? For my personal account I went to https://account.live.com/proofs/manage/additional then Add then selected Windows device. It asked for my Windows Hello PIN code and that was it. I didn't get any prompt from 1Password. I tried both in Firefox and Edge.

Addon versions
FF: 1Password im Browser 2.12.1 21200101, im Kanal BETA
Edge: 1Password im Browser 2.12.0 21200003, im Kanal BETA

    I just saw this message because I was wondering the same about the Mac. "Go passwordless" forces you to install Microsoft authenticator.

    But I did what you suggested, went through the USB security option, and it works fine on my Mac. If I look on my iPhone it shows me that there's a Passkey in 1PW for that site but when I go through the login it simply copies my password in, then I get prompted for an OTP, instead of using a passkey. What am I missing? I can't set it up on the iphone because there's no USB security option showing when using an iphone.

    Hi there Naxterra

    On that page, click "(+) Add a new way to sign in or verify", then "Use a security key".

    Follow along as if you were adding a USB security key, and 1Password will offer to save a passkey for you.

    Let me know how that goes for you. :)
