Can't copy a generated password

Hi,
I've created a password but I didn't get the option at the time to save or update this password at the time. Now it appears in the history for the site and I can click on the history and use the password but can't copy it or save it with the login. Is there anyway to do this?
Thanks.

    Hi @length. Welcome to the forum. :)

    The password for that item you see as History for micosoftonline.com in Password Generator can be copied using the ⇧⌘C (Shift-Command-C) keyboard shortcut, like I can do with this one:

    A Password item has been saved for it that you can find in the Passwords category of the main 1Password app:

    It also shows up in 1Password mini:

    And here's one of our support articles with more info:

    If you generated a password that wasn't saved, or you can't sign in

    I hope that helps. :)

    Thank you! I was trying Command-C but not Shift-Command-C...

    You're welcome, @length. I remember an update to the keyboard shortcuts article related to this, and had to double-check back there to make sure it did mention Shift-Command-C. :lol:

    For that shortcut under 1Password mini (Mac), it says:

    Copy the password of the selected item.

    That works for copying it from the item details and in the History reference for it in Password Generator, while in mini.

    Cheers!
