Sorry for my broken english , i often share some login info for my friend , but i can't find a easy way to do it .
I notice "Share" item will open email app and fill some text like "onepassword://share/1?d=U2FsdGVkX18wRjE1QkY3Qhb"
but unlucky i don't know how to use it , i have try to open it on browser but it not work.
so now i have to copy username ,copy password one by one to paste it to my friend …… :'(

Hi @willxiang - if you are sharing a number of 1Password items with your friend you might want to consider creating a second vault containing just those items you want to share. If you create the vault in your Dropbox folder you can then share the 1Password folder in your Dropbox folder with your friend's Dropbox account. This way you can both view and edit the 1Password records and not have to re-share them if anything changes. You can read more about this here. Please let us know if you have any further questions on this.

Hi @LauraR
Thanks for you reply :)
For some reason i can't use Dropbox share vault for my friend...
And probably my friend are not use 1Password, so i just want know how can i share my username and password handy except one by one copy and paste.
I notice the 1Password for ios can send a login info like this format:

google.com
website:https://www.google.com/
username:xxxx
password:xxxx

So can i share login info like that on Windows?

@willxiang: No. On iOS and OS X we can use AirDrop to transmit data securely, but this is not available on Windows. A few options you can consider would be to create a new vault with a Master Password intended specifically for your friend, and then email the vault to them with the item(s) you'd like to share. Alternatively you could use GPG or another secure method to send the data directly (which may be worth setting up if you'll be sending data back and forth regularly), and then they won't need to have 1Password to access it. I hope this helps!
