Hello easymatics! 👋

Thanks for the question. You can add that code to 1Password by following these steps:

  1. Open the 1Password for Mac app.
  2. Click on the item for LinkedIn and click Edit.
  3. Click + add more and then click One-Time Password.
  4. Paste the code from LinkedIn into the field labeled one-time password code.

Let me know if you run into any issues.
