1password input focus lag with lots of inputs
I'm running into an issue where 1password seems to significantly slow down interaction with the webpage I'm working on. There's a ton of input fields of which most are hidden, I cannot lower the amount of inputs, in fact I have to increase the amount of inputs due to how the system works. Every time I click on an input, the focus is delayed by ~200ms or so. The next time I select the same input field it's instant. 1password seems to do something that slows down the focus event. I made a performance recording in firefox. I selected 3 inputs and after the 3rd on selected the same 3 in the same order with no slowdown. I've tried adding data-1p-ignore and autocomplete="off" but it didn't solve anything.
Use XDG_RUNTIME_DIR for agent.sock
Most distributions now should have good support for using the XDG directory specs, and 1Password successfully does this already for the browser integration. `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/1Password-BrowserSupport.sock` In 2025, can we please finally get support for the SSH agent socket to use XDG_RUNTIME_DIR as well? The previous post on this was 4 years ago. https://www.1password.community/discussions/developers/linux-use-xdg-runtime-dir-instead-of-home-1password/139159
Allow Warp as terminal to open SSH URLs
http://warp.dev is a popular terminal emulator that support both MacOS, Windows and Linux. It's popular and should be considered relevant enough. It would be great to support this Terminal within Settings -> Developer -> SSH Agent -> Advanced -> Open SSH URLs with.
Why the requirement for group id >= 1000?
In various places people have had to discover, and workaround the fact that the 1Password Browser-Helper and CLI not only require being in a specific group (fine), and have setgid set (also fine), but the gid of that group must by greater or equal to 1000 for the integration to work: Arch: Can not connect to desktop app | 1Password Community Gentoo: [SOLVED] Browser support error on Gentoo Linux | 1Password Community NixOS: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/commit/2a58907251af76c67c6d14c1e84e73f7eaeb95e8 I've been working on a distro package for a Linux distribution I'm building and also had to discover this. As per the previous implementation in the AUR, my package uses systemd-sysusers to automatically manage users and groups required by packages. By default these automatically assigned gids are less than 1000, which causes the browser integration to fail. I can work around by hard-coding a gid, but it would be better if it just worked with the automatically assigned one. I'm wondering what's the reason for the >= 1000 requirement, and can the need for it be removed to make packaging simpler, cleaner, and consistent with other packages that need specific users and groups.
Copy secret reference (using ID values)
This applies to all platforms (not just Mac), but I didn't see a community category for "all platforms", so I'm choosing Mac because it seems to have the highest user activity Perhaps I've missed some documentation, but I don't find a way to copy a https://developer.1password.com/docs/cli/secrets-reference-syntax/ using the desktop app. This seems like a basic and essential task during development. What I want is this format: op://vault_id/item_id/section_id/field_id or if the value isn't in a section: op://vault_id/item_id/field_id How can I do that easily β and get a secret reference defined by ID values (which should be immutable β vs. name values which can be modified)? More context: I find some ways to construct the URL manually (but this is not ideal): A URL can be copied which includes the vault and item ID among other query parameters: I get one in a format like this: https://start.1password.com/open/i?v={VAULT_ID}&i={ITEM_ID} However, that's not enough as it doesn't include the section/field, and would need to be manually edited or processed by other tooling as an additional step to get the required output. I can also use "Copy item UUID" and then paste that as an argument to a manually-typed CLI command to get much more than what's needed: % op --format=json item get x5k2wndiih6cmw2rugl7ol442i { "id": "x5k2wndiih6cmw2rugl7ol442i", // --- snip --- "vault": { "id": "{REDACTED_VAULT_ID}", // --- snip --- }, // --- snip --- "fields": [ // --- snip --- { "id": "credential", "type": "CONCEALED", "label": "credential", "value": "abc123", "reference": "op://{REDACTED_VAULT_NAME}/API Credential/credential" }, // --- snip --- ] } However, this still involves either manually copying+pasting IDs or using other tooling to parse and create the required output. The JSON does include a reference value for the target field, but the reference is built using names, which isn't satisfactory for the reasons described previously. For the example above, what I want to copy to the clipboard is the following (where {VAULT_ID} is replaced by the actual vault ID): op://{VAULT_ID}/x5k2wndiih6cmw2rugl7ol442i/credential I think that if the boolean option is enabled at Settings > Advanced > Show debugging tools: then there should be an option to copy a complete ID-based secret reference for every field in its contextual menu: This is a re-posting of previous issue β the 1Password team stopped responding and it was closed without comment: https://1password.community/discussion/139642/copy-secret-reference-using-id-values 1Password Version: 8.10.48 Extension Version: Not Provided OS Version: macOS 15.0.1 Browser: Not ProvidedNew getting-started guides, AI search, and LLM-ready docs for 1Password dev tools at 1password.dev
Hi everyone! We've been investing in making 1Password's developer documentation genuinely useful from the first click, and we wanted to share what's now live over at 1password.dev. π New getting-started guides We've published workflow-based getting-started guides across every major tool area: SSH & Git, 1Password CLI, SDKs (Go, JavaScript, Python), Environments, integrations, and more. Instead of jumping between reference pages, you can follow a clear path from setup to working integration, organized around how you actually build. π AI-powered search across the docs You can hit Ctrl+K on any page and ask a question in plain language. The built-in AI assistant searches the full documentation set and gives you a direct answer with links to the relevant pages. Itβs a much faster way to find what you need, especially if youβre not sure which tool or section to look in. Try it: open 1password.dev, hit β+K, and type βHow do I set up git commit signing with multiple GitHub accounts?β π€ Docs built for AI dev workflows If you use AI coding assistants like Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, or Claude, our docs are now natively consumable. Every page is available as Markdown (append .md to any URL), and we serve llms.txt and llms-full.txt at the site root so your tools can reference 1Password docs directly. Details here: Build with LLMs ποΈ Refreshed docs structure The documentation is now organized around the way developers work, with clearer navigation across SSH & Git, CLI, SDKs, Environments, secrets management, and integrations. If you've found our docs hard to navigate in the past, it's worth another look. π One practical note: our developer docs now live at 1password.dev. All your existing developer.1password.com links and bookmarks redirect automatically, so nothing breaks. We'd love your feedback If you run into any issues or have suggestions, let us know in this thread. You can also reach us in the 1Password Developers Slack. Happy building! π
WSL2 + 1Password CLI
I have a WSL2 system set up with NixOS where I used to be able to use shell plugins (primarily the `gh` tool for GitHub) - but today it is not working, throwing an error message: [ERROR] 2025/12/27 22:35:25 Shell Plugins can only be used with the 1Password app integration enabled. To learn more about this feature, check out: https://developer.1password.com/docs/cli/about-biometric-unlock/ This used to work - but unfortunately I don't know exactly _when_ it stopped working, I use the VM sporadically. Config: $ op plugin inspect ?

The documentation page does redirect to a different page about app integration, however this seems to only cover common use cases such as "I am using Windows and I want access to 1Password from Powershell" or "I have macOS and want access from the native terminal with `bash`/`zsh`". There doesn't seem to be any advice for running within a WSL2 virtual machine where 1Password is running _outside_ of the VM and I need access for shell plugins _inside_ the VM... Any tips or advice?
Passkey algorithm support
Recently I began a passkey integration and I'm using 1password to test things out. There are a great deal of passkey algorithms that exist: https://www.iana.org/assignments/cose/cose.xhtml#algorithms Unfortunately it seems like if I remove all the "Recommended: No" and "Recommended: Deprecated" ones, I am unable to get 1password to generate a passkey. It gives me a somewhat opaque "1password encountered a problem" in the passkey dialogue after I click Save, and it seems to fall back to the browser which prompts me for a security key. I see this in the console log: PortOpener: passkey-save-prompt/XXXXXX received error: "create-passkey-failed" The algorithms I chose in order to be more secure based on the recommendations on that page and what I'm able to support in my server: PS384 PS512 RS256 RS384 RS512 The "deprecated" algorithm I added to make the error go away, and allow 1password to correctly function: ES256 Is there anywhere to find the full list of passkey algorithms 1password supports so I can try to come up with a good list to use on the server-side? Ideally it wouldn't contain deprecated ones.Investigating "op" CLI + Ansible Integration Issues
Regarding the recent issues with the Ansible plugin for 1Password CLI. We're aware of the current issues affecting usage of op CLI with community.general.onepassword in Ansible, especially around session sharing and repeated auth prompts in Linux environments. Our team is actively investigating and working on a fix. We appreciate your patience while we work through the edge cases. If a workaround is found before the fix is issued, we will follow up with that information. Stay tuned. To learn more about what is happening, you can follow this thread over on our Developer Slack channel. Thanks Phil & the 1Password team.
'op read' mistreats binary content
I wanted to write a command for git crypt unlock <FILE>, but since the command requires file as input and I was figuring out how to get content of attachment, I first tried it with op read 'op://<my-vault>//git-crypt.key' > git-crypt.key. Then, trying to unlock with now stored key, I was met with error "not a valid git-crypt key file". After some investigation, I found out that the stored key is slightly modified. This seem to happen when: The content is at least partially binary The content contains some invalid Unicode sequences or certain control characters The content is directly redirected into a file using > operator It seems that ascii-only content isn't affected. The binary content is also not affected when it's being piped into another process (e.g. op read 'op://<my-vault>/<my-item>/git-crypt.key' | cat > git-crypt.key - extra cat in the pipeline helps op store the contents correctly). What also works correctly is git crypt unlock <(op read -n ...) as it also creates a inter-process pipe. Since there's quite glaring occurrence of ef bf bd, which is a Unicode replacement character (οΏ½), and sequence 594f 7f63 is transformed to just 594f 63.. (7f being a DELETE control character), it seems that the content undergoes some UTF-8 decoding/processing. This is bit confusing as it's neither documented, nor is there any -b | --binary option to control this behavior. # Create a binary file and upload it to 1Password > dd if=/dev/urandom of=binary-data bs=1 count=32 # Fetch the attachment from 1Password using CLI > op read -n 'op://<my-vault>/Test/binary-data' > binary-data-redirected-to-file > op read -n 'op://<my-vault>/Test/binary-data' | cat > binary-data-piped-through-cat # Print content > hexxy -n binary-data 0000000: 00c6 773b 1963 95f1 6dc5 1bb6 bdde 4946 ..w;.c..m.....IF 0000010: 9f0e 594f 7f63 b6ed 2392 f9e1 91b3 abfc ..YO.c..#....... > hexxy -n binary-data-redirected-to-file 0000000: efbf bd77 3b63 efbf bdef bfbd 6def bfbd ...w;c......m... 0000010: efbf bdef bfbd efbf bd49 46ef bfbd 594f .........IF...YO 0000020: 63ef bfbd efbf bd23 efbf bdef bfbd e191 c......#........ 0000030: b3ef bfbd efbf bd ....... > hexxy -n binary-data-piped-through-cat 0000000: 00c6 773b 1963 95f1 6dc5 1bb6 bdde 4946 ..w;.c..m.....IF 0000010: 9f0e 594f 7f63 b6ed 2392 f9e1 91b3 abfc ..YO.c..#.......
