Hello @waldhaus1! 👋
I'm sorry for the delay in responding, I hope that you had a nice weekend. Do I understand correctly that you'd like to use 1Password as the authenticator app for your Microsoft account? You can use 1Password as an authenticator app by opening the Security page for your Microsoft account and the following these steps:
- Click "Add a new way to sign in or verify".
- Click "Use an app".
- Click "set up a different Authenticator app".
- Then use 1Password for Safari to save the one-time password on the page: https://support.1password.com/one-time-passwords/?ios#to-save-your-qr-code-in-the-apps
- Finish setting up the authenticator app on the Microsoft website.
I hope that helps. 🙂
