During 1Password setup, it detected my account. How did it do this? I'm on a fresh install.
I'm curious as to how the 1Password setup detected these accounts. Is it from other 1Password instances on my local network? Some hidden file on iCloud? Some insight would be helpful to know that this information is secure.
1Password Version: 6.8
Extension Version: Not Provided

Hey @ZacBook! Great question. 1Password detects the accounts because their basic info is stored in iCloud Keychain. Kyle and Jeff from our security team wrote up a great explanation of how this works, and I invite you to check that out:
