Exporting TOTP codes from 1Password
Comments

Is there a way @Aaron Pinsker to manually pull out TOTP codes once the QR code has been scanned into 1password?

Hi @brank
The TOTP secret is stored in the item in 1Password. If you export to 1PIF these secrets will be exported (in plain text). Some 3rd party offerings have the ability to import a 1PIF. Alternatively, if the one you are trying to import into does not, you may be able to use @MrC's converter suite to convert the 1PIF to something that can be imported:

Exporting to 1PIF cannot be found in 1Password 8. It's 1PUX now, or CSV. So @MrC's converter cannot be used for exporting TOTP's.
Anyhow, obviously, there is no way to export a TOTP token form 1Password to Safari's keychain. Some time ago, I remember, in the iOS version of 1Password in some records with TOTP enabled I was able to see the originating TOTP text string in the TOTP field that was stored after scanning the QR-code, when editing a record. Copying this string in Safari's keychain simply enabled TOTP codes in Safari. However, in the latest version of 1Password I don't see these strings anymore. The only thing I see is an otpauth://* string in the TOTP field. When I copy such a string in Safari's keychain TOTP is being enabled, but the codes don't match with the codes in 1Password. So, this won't do the trick.
Disabling and enabling TOTP in the involved account is an option, of course (perhaps the only one, for now?), but, as you already mentioned, you cannot be sure if a TOTP text string will be presented.
Maybe you know of another solution?0 -
@Fresco The otpauth://* string should end with *secret=[base 32 alphanumeric secret].
I have not tried it, but what happens if you just paste the base 32 alphanumeric secret into Safari's keychain?
