Two-factor authentication for any website?
Hi,
I noticed that I only get the purple "Two-factor authentication" box where I can scan a QR code on certain websites. I would love to have this functionality for any website, not just the "approved" ones.
I'm a developer and I'm working on my own 2FA flow for my application, so the URL for my website is just my localhost. I have a QR code that I need to scan, but I just don't get that option at all. Even if I push my app to a staging site or even production, 1Password has no idea about my unknown application right now, so I just can't save my TOTP with 1Password.
Are there any plans to open this feature up to all websites? This limitation means I have to do my debugging in the Authy app, but I would love to use 1Password instead.
Thanks!

Hi drewrawitz - tetardbleu is correct, you can add a One-Time Password field to any item via
Edit > + Add More > One-Time Password. The 1Password browser extension also allows you to add TOTP codes to your Login items without leaving your browser, you can follow the steps in the support guide linked below:ā Use 1Password as an authenticator for sites with two-factor authentication
The purple "Two-factor authentication" alerts are from Watchtower and are based on a database of popular sites that are known to support 2FA.
Let me know if you have any questions. š
tetardbleu Oh, jeez ā I don't know how I missed that, I was only looking for that purple box. Thank you very much!
Hi drewrawitz
You canhttps://support.1password.com/custom-fields/. You just have to edit the item you want and add the corresponding field.
