MySQLWorkbench and SSH Connection with 1Password

I'm wanting to connect to a MySQL database via an ssh tunnel. This would be easy enough, but I've stored all my ssh keys in 1Password. I'm using the MySQLWorkbench which asks me to provide the location of the ssh key, but since it's in 1Password, I'm unsure where it's located on the system and how to get 1Password to easily work with MySQLWorkbench. Is there some easy way around? Is there a specific location the the key is stored?


1Password Version: Mac 8.9.6 (80906030), 1password-cli: 2.7.1
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 12.6

    Unfortunately, MySQL Workbench does not support any SSH agent, including 1Password's agent. A workaround would be to start the SSH tunnel from your terminal and then in MySQL Workbench connect to it over localhost.
