disable biometric prompt if authenticated in 1Password UI?

I set several env vars in my .zshrc using op read. When the .zshrc loads, I am prompted with a screen pop for Touch ID and Apple Watch.

This happens whether or not I have authenticated (unlocked) the 1P UI. Is it possible to get a value from my vault into an env var without this prompt, assuming I have unlocked?

Context: each time I open a new tab in iTerm I get the prompts


1Password Version: 1Password for Mac 8.10.6 (81006027)
Extension Version: 2.18.0
OS Version: macos Ventura 13.4 (22F66)
Browser:_ Chrome

    Turns out it's not an issue really -- I have moved 2 of the 3 items (Github and AWS) to the plugins, and it's all good. Thanks so much for your reply. And thanks for keeping our world a bit more secure!

    Hello!

    There are not currently any options to do that, and due to the security can of worms that would open it's not on our short-term roadmap. Service accounts might be a reasonable solution for your use case, here is a good starting point: https://developer.1password.com/docs/service-accounts/

    Thank you for your request!
