Is it possible for 1Password CLI running on WSL to connect with 1Password hosted on Windows?

Hey folks,

Thanks for sharing your interest! I know it's something I'd love to see as well, so I'll add your feedback. 🙂

With the current lack of support for Windows side plugins (official and otherwise) it would be extremely useful to be able to get this working.

Also very interested by that! Trying the alias to op.exe for now.

You can use the Windows cli binary, which is already connected to the host's 1Password instance, to access the data.

alias op="op.exe"

Obviously, op.exe needs to be accessible via the host's PATH or the WSL's PATH, or you'll have to specify the full path to the binary in /mnt/c/.../.

Autocomplete works as well.

eval "$(op completion zsh)"; compdef _op op.exe

Unfortunately, this will only work for your own scripts because the binary's plugins still run on Windows and don't recognize the Linux shell, unless the plugin supports both platforms.

Here's a sudo alias:

alias sudo="sudo -S <<< $(op item get YOUR_ROOT_PASS_ID --fields label=password)"

Or, as a separate command, since sudo -S removes its interactivity.

alias sudoauth="op item get YOUR_ROOT_PASS_ID --fields label=password | sudo -Sv"

Another +1 here

+1 name for the list if it helps. :)

Hey @thisdevdane:

I've added you as well! 🙂

Just to add to the list of people, that is something I wish for as well.

Hey @FWest98:

I've noted your interest as well. Thanks for reaching out!

I would be very interested in this feature as well! Especially with the shell plugins recently introduced, that would be a great combination of being able to connect to GitLab from my WSL shell using Hello authentication.
