Support for Orion Browser

@jjthejet: I appreciate the question. There are two parts to this ongoing effort:

1. Allowing 1Password to connect securely to any browser that you trust.
2. Improving compatibility of the 1Password extension with specific web browsers.

We have been fixing bugs and making improvements to #1, and I can share with you that we are on track to bring this feature to production (likely through 1Password Labs) soon.

The second piece is more complicated since it's a responsibility that's shared with the browser developers. For our part, we aim to make 1Password compatible with the WebExtensions spec that most browsers implement. But each browser is unique, especially ones like Orion that are not simple forks of Chromium.

When we learn about issues with 1Password in a browser, we reach out to the developers to work it out, and we have been in communication with Vlad from Orion about every issue we've found or that has been reported to us. A lot of improvements have been made to bring us from zero support to where things stand today, so I am optimistic that compatibility will continue to improve.

Hi 1P_Mitch ag_Christian,

Any update on the progress of stabilizing the 1Password integration with "untrusted" browsers, specifically using Orion on macOS?

I, along with many other users, are seeing the same behavior that @vividluck5412 is seeing in https://1password.community/discussion/comment/691541/#Comment_691541.

This is beta software and issues are to be expected, obviously. However, it's been over a month since the feature was placed in beta and I have not seen any acknowledgment of the issue(s) nor any improvements with the behavior.

It would be great if we could receive confirmation that 1Password is aware of the issues and actively working to resolve them. Additionally, any sort of estimate on timeframe would be much appreciated, you have real customers who are waiting on this functionality to improve their workflows.

I have the same problem. Adding Orion not OrionRC doesn't add anything in the latest Nightly.

Besides that there is another problem…
~~When I try to login to the 1password.eu server my login doesn't stick. ~~
~~As soon as I refresh the page I get back to the login page. ~~
~~The 1password extension never really unlocks. ~~

Maybe 1P_Mitch Can shine a light on this. Is this a known issue? ~~
~~Thanks for all work so far.

I stand corrected I just checked again and the latest Nightly 1Password for Mac 8.10.12 (81012017) makes it possible to add Orion and OrionRC
And I was even able to unlock via the 1password.eu server. Hooray!

can see the Add Browser button under Trusted Browsers, but selecting Orion.app does nothing

The same thing is happening to me

Hey there. I heard the news about the new trusted browser feature! Super excited to try it out with Orion. I'm on nightly build 81012009 and can see the Add Browser button under Trusted Browsers, but selecting Orion.app does nothing. The file selector window also does not appear unless the main 1Password window is open along with the settings window. Also, after selecting Orion.app, the main window comes in front of the settings window, requiring me to use Cmd + ` to switch back to the settings window. I've tried restarting the app but that did nothing. Any ideas?

With the new beta in tow and the nightly desktop app... it's hit and miss. Some fields just work, others require a reload (you can see both the apple keychain icon and the 1password logo in the same place, even though i have password provider set to 3rd party). But one other thing i tried are passkeys, and it seems that doesn't work at all, even though I have the beta extension installed

The changes just landed in Orion beta too (for people not using Orion RC).

I'd like to add my voice to the mix and invite the 1P team to support and work with Orion fully. With the recent sinister changes to Chrome and more of them in the pipeline, I think supporting browsers like Orion takes precedence.

Any idea when this will make it to stable?

I love you guys, but this whole situation is a massive fumble on your part. Orion/Kagi users are exactly the people who are willing (eager!) to pay directly for top quality software/support, even when free (or ad-supported) alternatives are available. Yet you've left us waiting for years, and pissed off the Kagi team, who could have been as valuable partners as Fastmail. Yet Arc is supported??

I totally understand your feeling of "we can't keep supporting these one-offs, we need a general solution," but this one was strategically valuable, and you blew it.

vprelovac - This appears to have been resolved in a recent update. It is working on the Intel MacBook Pro.
