Sudo support

We do have an internal ticket open for this, I'll make sure to update this thread when any progress on that has been made.

Just in case somebody else runs into this - the advice by XIII above is great... but doesn't work if you are in tmux.

@"Horia.Culea_1P" Yes, that scenario is the basis of my ask - I'm ssh'ed into another machine, get a sudo prompt and would love to somehow use my local biometric auth method to answer it. But even simpler is the local device. I open a command prompt, sudo and have a prompt. XIII above gave a pointer to one way (although I so far didn't get it to work), but it seems like it might be possible to use the 1password cli stuff to have it work.

Hey @bdillahu, thank you for reaching out to us!

Can you please give us more information about your use-case? From what I understand, you have a remote server that you ssh into. This server has biometric authentication enabled with the CLI, and you would like the authorisation prompt to be redirected, through the ssh connection, to the machine that you physically have access to, is this correct?

I am looking forward to hearing back from you!
Best,
Horia

Thanks! That's handy and I'll play with that - I don't think it solves for when I'm remoted/ssh'ed into some other machine (my Linux server say) and need to elevate privileges there...

You don’t need 1Password for that, since you do this natively in macOS:
