I have a single login with three urls. Note sure how this is meant to work but it's not working very well :(

https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/wa/directToSignIn?localang=en_US https://beta.icloud.com/ https://www.icloud.com/
How should this work?

If I navigate to www.icloud.com and then press the hot-key to bring up 1Password it does not show the login.
If I scroll to the Login for Apple then 1Passwords opens a new tab with the first url.

WHat's missing?

    @mtissington‌ Please turn ON this setting: File > Preferences (Ctrl+P) > Logins > Lenient URL matching

    Thanks - is there more information about this ... what does it actually do?

    It turns ON multiple URLs in your web browser, among a few other things.

    @mtissington‌, here's the relevant text from the 1Password for Windows user's guide (found in a search for "lenient"):

    Lenient URL and domain matching

    If you use a single set of login credentials (username and password) for multiple sites, you can add multiple URLs to a Login item in the “edit” dialog box.

    If the domains are the same except for subdomains (mail.google.com, maps.google.com, and images.google.com, for example), 1Password will offer automatically to use the Login item at any of the URLs. You don’t need to set up domain matching, though the Lenient URL matching option is currently required.

    Thanks, seems to do more ... in my case the domains are totally different - but at least it works :)

    Also from that user's guide description of the Logins tab:

    If the domains are different (acme.com, acme.net, and acme-corp.biz, for example), you can use domain matching to tell 1Password to treat them as equivalent.

    I believe they're at least designed to do different (though related) things.

    Specifically, domain matching allows you to equate completely unrelated domains, so that (for example) a saved Login for acme-widgets.com would be offered by 1Password for use on the general-manufacturing.net login page.
