YUBI key feature?
Is there a way to use YUBI key to log on instead of entering my password every time into my browser. So essentially using the YUBIkey as the password? and if so can someone please provide a step by step guide on how to make this happen. Thank you

Hello @Diamonddog! 👋
Thanks for the question! If you're using a 1Password account that is protected by an account password and Secret Key then you'll need to use your account password to unlock both the app and the browser extension on your devices.
That being said, we're currently testing passkey unlock in a public beta which allows you to unlock 1Password using a passkey rather than an account password. Passkeys are usually saved in a platform manager like iCloud Keychain but they can also be saved to a YubiKey. You can read more here:
The passkey unlock beta requires that you create a special new account, passkeys can't be added to existing accounts yet. Once you've created a passkey unlock account and saved your initial passkey in a passkey manager, you can add your YubiKey.
Please be aware that passkey unlock is still in beta so you may run into more issues than usual. If you're hesitant about using a beta then I would stick with a regular account for now. If you tell me what kind of devices you're using then I can also let you know how to turn on biometric unlock for 1Password so that you can unlock 1Password more conveniently using your fingerprint or face rather than having to type in your account password all the time. 🙂

Thank you for the reply. You can setup system authentication so that you can unlock 1Password using your Linux user password, biometrics, or even a security key (as you requested in your original post). You can find instructions here:
You'll need to install the 1Password for Linux desktop app first. Let me know if you have any questions.
