What is the correct 1Password Category for "App Passwords" or passwords that don't an username?
I have several applications, like Fastmail( fastmail.com), that generate application passwords so that 3rd party application can authenticate to access their data.
For example, I can create a unique password for a calendar application like BusyCal so that it can access my Fastmail Calendar and nothing else.
Which 1Password category should I store the app password in? I thought "password" would be correct, but that expect there to be a username. As a work around, I could put "none" for the username, but there may be a better solution.
1Password Version: 8.10.30
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: 14.4.1
Browser: Safari

Some suggestions:
For app-passwords you can generate for services such as Fastmail, I create a new password field in the Login record, in a custom section called App Passwords. This keeps them with the service.
For services where you don't have a Login record, you can just add a Password record, and ignore Username and Website fields. Or you can create a separate Secure Note, add a new password field and store the value there.
