I have this to offer re saved documents and updating. Is there a better way?
The quick info for how to save a document says nothing about updating. I got a Covid booster and went to replace the image with a new one with more shots. There is an "edit" choice, but then the only option appears to be "add a document". Now I have two cards where I want just one. There was also a right click option to delete a local copy, but that doesn't change what 1Password has on file.
My only option seemed to be to create a new document with the updated Covid card and then delete the older version with no booster.
Is this the way it is supposed to work? I can imagine a "case" for preserving the stored document and not allowing any changes, as if archived in the Library of Congress. But perhaps I am missing something of an easier way to replace a document with an updated document.
You would think this is a common and useful option. But I could not make it work even for this trivial case of a new covid card.
Delete and create new is not user friendly here. What is the recommended way to do this?
1Password Version: 7.9.4
Extension Version: Not Provided

Hey @GeoffMather:
Thanks for your thoughts on this! There's a few possible options you can use, depending on whether or not you're using 1Password 8 or not.
1Password 8 for Mac allows the ability to replace the file in a document item, where 1Password 7 doesn't.
The other possible option is using the Medical Record item type, filling in your details, and then attaching your file to the Medical Record item. With a Medical Record item, you can remove and replace attachments as needed, without having to create an entirely new item every time.
Let me know how you get on with that!
