Is it possible to run the 1Password installer for MacOS where the UI doesn't show up?

    Hello @StrayKev! 👋

    Thank you for reaching out! Can you tell me a little more about how you're deploying 1Password? Is this to a personal Mac or for an organization that you manage?

    Have you already seen our deployment guides on how to use the PKG installer to deploy 1Password for Mac:

    I look forward to hearing from you.

    Hi @Dave_1P

    I am not deploying 1Password or managing 1Password for an organization. What I am trying to do is run the Unix executable/1Password\ Installer.app/Contents/MacOS/1Password\ Installer without displaying the UI.

    For the Windows 1Password installer, you can do a silent installation by passing the silent flag 1PasswordSetup-latest.exe --silent. Is there anything similar for MacOS installer?

    I'm sorry for the delay. I'm not not aware of a way to suppress the UI in the regular installer. The installer will just show the "downloading" and "installing" progress bar and then open 1Password when the install is finished, no user interaction is required:

    Are you able to tell me a little more about why you'd like to suppress the UI?

    Did you check out the pages that I linked above? There's a PKG version of the installer that you can silently install using something like the following command:

    sudo installer -pkg "/filepathto/1Password.pkg" -target /
