If you have multiple items in your 1Password vault with the same name, I think your choices are:

  1. Rename items to be unique (maybe difficult if you have MANY items with the sam name)
  2. Use "secret reference" More here:

Regarding "secret references": in a nutshell you navigate to the password field (or whatever field you need) in 1Password App, then right click > copy secret reference. Then you have a unique identifier to use in the CLI directly to the field you need.
