Hello bun! 👋

Thanks for reaching out. To delete a one-time password from an item the user has to perform three actions:

  1. Edit the item in question.
  2. Remove the OTP field from the item.
  3. Save the item.

This reduces the risk of someone deleting the one-time password by accident. And if you do accidentally delete a one-time password then you can restore it from the item's history on 1Password.com:

I hope that helps. 🙂
