Similar to RayCast https://www.raycast.com/core-features/snippets it'd be great if 1Password had a tool, where you could use aliases for text expansion. IE `!addr` to insert your address. This `!a...

Hello ahenshaw​! 👋

Thank you for the feedback! If you're using a Mac then we're currently testing Secure Snippets through 1Password Labs, you can enable the feature by following these steps: 


If you're using an individual or family account, you should see "Secure Snippets" in the list of available exploratory features. Secure Snippets aren't currently available for teams or business accounts. Let us know what you think!

    Hi 1P_Dave​ ,

    I'm definitely keen to test this feature and provide feedback.
    Unfortunately I can't see it listed in the `Labs` area, within the 1Password Desktop app for MacOS settings

      I'm sorry that you're not seeing "Secure snippets" in Labs. Can you check that you're running the latest version of 1Password for Mac which is 8.11.2: How to keep 1Password up to date

      If you are running the latest version and still don't see "Secure snippets" then try resetting the app (note that this will reset other settings in the app that you'll need to set again):

      🚨 Before proceeding, make sure that you have a copy of your Emergency Kit, that you know your account password, and that you're signed into 1Password on another device.

      1. Reset the 1Password app: How to reset the 1Password app on a specific device
      2. Add your 1Password account back to the 1Password app: How to add your 1Password account to the apps
      3. Follow the prompts to setup 1Password and configure any settings that you had configured before. 


      Let me know if that still doesn't work.

        Hi1P_Dave​ ,

        Unfortunately I still cannot see the Secure Snippets option in Labs. I wonder if this is because I have a `Teams` account, as I saw a reddit post[1] where people with Teams accounts weren’t able to enable Secure Snippets
