ssh agent and ansible 12 prompting incessantly
I've been using the SSH Agent in 1Password for a couple of years now, with very little trouble. This includes lots of SSH to individual machines as well as a fair amount of ansible scripting using versions prior to 12 and run directly from Terminal. Recently, I did a `brew upgrade` and ended up with Ansible 12. After that, it has become commonplace that ansible scripts run on my local machine and talking to nearby devices over the network result in 1passwd SSH agent prompting for every...single...command. I rolled back to ansible 10 (11 not available directly in Brew any longer) and the behavior returned to normal: prompting at the outset of my ansible script and not again until the next time I run a script. Running Ansible (as opposed to directly sshing in Terminal) has always prompted at the run, and usually for each individual destination machine, but that has been it. With the change to Ansible 12, the prompting from the SSH agent in 1password is now such that it is not usable. For the time being, I can roll back to ansible 10, but that won't be the case forever. Does anyone else have experience with this? Any recommendations for either diagnostics or solutions other than just disabling 1password's otherwise-highly-useful SSH Agent?
Fingerprint sensor support on remote systems?
Hello, maybe I missed something. Hence, I am asking before buying a new Mac Keyboard with sensor ... I use 1Password for: local stuff on my Mac on remote systems over ssh Visual Studio Code (VSC) remote over ssh VSC Docker devcontainers on remote Linux systems (In VSC open a folder on a remote system, open the project folder in docker devcontainers) Typing in the vault password is a cumbersome thing, when done too often, and restarting and rebuilding the containers, are new shells / terminals requesting entering the 1Password vault password often. Hence, I am looking for a way to make this simpler and hoped for support of the fingerprint sensor on remote systems.
CLI Slow Performance
I have the 1Password desktop app installed and up to date on my macBook Pro, the `op` CLI is also installed, up to date, and working properly. All expected CLI queries work but they are surprisingly slow. After a bunch of trial and error, it seems that it is making a round-trip online as part of every single CLI query. I added the --debug flag and I can see cache hits, but the round trip online is still occurring. Disabling the network interface causes all queries to fail. Is it possible to get the 1Password CLI working fully offline to avoid all of this unnecessary round-trip business? Surely with the desktop app installed and CLI integration turned on, there has to be a way to make efficient (and offline) use of my 1Password vaults. Otherwise automation tasks that require secrets are simply too cumbersome to handle with 1Password, and I will require a secondary solution. And in that case, I may as well give up on 1Password.SSH Bookmarks not working?
Hi, I’ve been trying to set up SSH Bookmarks, but I can’t get them to work. I have seven keys, and the client attempts all of them on the server even when the bookmark is configured correctly. As a result, I get "Too many authentication failures" before it reaches the correct (7th or more) key. I’ve also tried moving all keys to the private vault for testing, but the behavior is the same. When I download the .pub file and try this command on Mac It does pick only the right one. But the problem is that i have to actually download the .pub file and according to the bookmark it should do that automatically. ssh -o IdentitiesOnly=yes -i ~/path/to/key/pub_key.pub user@host.net This is on Windows and on my Mac and Im not using any custom ports. UPDATE 1: I got it working by checking the generate ssh-config file. Then in my .ssh/config set Include ~/.ssh/1Password/config. However this feels like it should be all done automatically? So i dont have to enable the generate check ssh and also should not include it.Terraform plugin troubleshooting
I am troubleshooting some credential issues with the 1Password CLI terraform plugin. The plugin is in beta, I use `op` version `2.31.1-beta.01` as the latest beta version with the plugin at the time. Issue: the terraform output command does not get credentials. Baseline execution, credentials defined in environment, export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="..." export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="..." terraform init # works terraform apply # works terraform output # works unset AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="..." unset AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="..." Executing using the same credentials but stored in 1Password: op plugin init terraform # Choose key from 1Password op plugin run -- terraform init # works op plugin run -- terraform apply # works op plugin run -- terraform output # Error: No valid credential sources found The expected behaviour is that terraform output also works. Here's an example Terraform script that I used for testing: terraform { required_version = ">= 1.9.0" required_providers { aws = { source = "hashicorp/aws" version = "~> 6.0" } } backend "s3" { bucket = "something-something-terraform-prod" key = "test/terraform.tfstate" region = "eu-central-1" use_lockfile = true encrypt = true } } provider "aws" { alias = "bootstrap" region = "eu-central-1" } data "aws_caller_identity" "current" { provider = aws.bootstrap } provider "aws" { region = "eu-central-1" assume_role { role_arn = "arn:aws:iam::${data.aws_caller_identity.current.account_id}:role/terraform-prod" } } data "aws_key_pair" "test" { key_name = "test-key-that-already-exists" } output key { value = data.aws_key_pair.test.key_name } Note that I use "assume-role" in the script, but this had no issues when using environment variables. I did NOT request a session token manually. I let terraform do the session management itself. The AWS provider is a bit overcomplicated, but this is what I had at hand. Terraform output works when using environment variables, and does not work when using the 1Password plugin. I ran terraform with trace level logs. I compared a working and a non-working log and the only difference is one line: 2025-09-19T21:14:32.935+0200 [TRACE] Meta.Backend: BackendOpts.Config not set, so using settings loaded from provider.tf:11,3-15 This makes me assume that the plugin does not hand over credentials to terraform when the "output" command is run. Since the state file can be stored on S3, credentials are essential for the output command. For completeness sake, here's the non-working log (with some redactions): 2025-09-19T21:14:32.934+0200 [INFO] Terraform version: 1.13.2 2025-09-19T21:14:32.934+0200 [DEBUG] using github.com/hashicorp/go-tfe v1.74.1 2025-09-19T21:14:32.934+0200 [DEBUG] using github.com/hashicorp/hcl/v2 v2.24.0 2025-09-19T21:14:32.934+0200 [DEBUG] using github.com/hashicorp/terraform-svchost v0.1.1 2025-09-19T21:14:32.934+0200 [DEBUG] using github.com/zclconf/go-cty v1.16.3 2025-09-19T21:14:32.934+0200 [INFO] Go runtime version: go1.24.5 2025-09-19T21:14:32.934+0200 [INFO] CLI args: []string{"terraform", "output"} 2025-09-19T21:14:32.934+0200 [TRACE] Stdout is a terminal of width 144 2025-09-19T21:14:32.934+0200 [TRACE] Stderr is not a terminal 2025-09-19T21:14:32.934+0200 [TRACE] Stdin is a terminal 2025-09-19T21:14:32.934+0200 [DEBUG] Attempting to open CLI config file: /Users/user/.terraformrc 2025-09-19T21:14:32.934+0200 [DEBUG] File doesn't exist, but doesn't need to.

Hi all, Just released today, you can now decode JWT (JSON Web Tokens) directly in the 1Password desktop app. No more do you have to dump your tokens into websites. Learn more about it in the announcement post. What other things can we add to help ease your development flow?
Retrieving security question fields with op read
We're trying to use 1Password's support for security questions, but having difficulty retrieving the values for fields that have a question mark at the end. For example, op read "op://MyOnePassword/SomeAccount/What is the street name on which you grew up?" yields a "could not parse query parameters" error. Encoding the question mark at the end as %3F doesn't help. What's the correct syntax for retrieving fields like this?
