Where is the email address source record(s) for autofill?

I'd appreciate some help here from the community. I use 4 email addresses regularly for different reasons. 2 of them are always suggested by 1Password (as you can see from the screenshot below). However, I don't know what the source record (or records) are for these. Therefore, I don't know how to add the additional 2 email addresses that I use regularly. Can anyone please advise?


1Password Version: 7.8.820
Extension Version: 2.1.3
OS Version: Wind 10 pro x64

    Hey sspaus ,
    You are correct - 1Password will suggest the first email from an identity item on websites where there's an email field.

    If you have four different emails, you can create four different identity items that contain only your email (no need to fill out all the fields, just the email field in each one), and that way 1Password will suggest all four emails when you encounter an email field on a website.

    I just checked my Brave browser settings and they have been switched off ever since I installed 1Password. So it's definately not pulling from the browser.

    I think these email addresses are coming from 2 "Identity" records that I have set up. However, it seems like autofill only pulls the 1st email address within each identity Record. In one of my identity records, I have set up all 4 of my email addresses, but they do not show up on Autofill, only the 1st one.

    Hi sspaus!

    In your screenshot, it looks like the suggestions are actually coming from your browser, and are hiding the ones coming from 1Password. Our recommendation is to remove this feature so you can add all information inside 1Password instead:

    To have email suggestions coming from 1Password, you can use Identity items:
