Hi @bwbarnes,

Thanks for writing in.

You should be able to find it in your emergency kit file that was offered when you first set up your 1Password account. This support article will explain how you can find your secret key: https://support.1password.com/secret-key/

Note that we do not know your secret key and it cannot be recovered, it is a secret only you'd know. You cannot regain access to your 1Password account without knowing this secret key and your master password.

Hi @bwbarnes,

I'm sorry to hear that. If you can't find your emergency kit printout and/or no longer have access to the original 1Password app or web browser you signed in with, there isn't anything else that can be done, you'd have to start over as mentioned in the support article. Use the contact us link on the bottom of the starting over guide if you need help.
