    Thanks!  So it seems the permissions requirements for the binaries means that it requires more than just installing the Nix packages.  In my config, I had to put:

      config = {
    nixpkgs.config.allowUnfree = true;
    programs._1password.enable = true;
    programs._1password-gui.enable = true;
  };

    Instead of:

         nixpkgs.config.allowUnfree = true;
     environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
       _1password-cli
       _1password-gui
     ];

    Everything now works for me.

Hello eraserhd! 👋
 

I'm sorry that both browser integration as well as the 1Password CLI aren't working on your NixOS system. While NixOS isn't one of our supported operating systems (you can find those listed here) I'll try to help as much as possible. 

As a start, I see that there's an active discussion in the NixOS repo in Gitlab. Although I can't vouch for the accuracy of the information found there, some users have posted suggestions that might help: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/258139
