I used the Chrome extension on my Mac to scan a QR quote to turn on MFA for a website. I didn't realize that feature even existed - it worked wonderfully. However, when trying to access that site on ...

2 years agoHi Dave,
That's correct. I'm able to use the Chrome extension to scan the QR code and create/save the one-time password field to the login item. Immediately after doing so, I check the Mac app, iPhone app, browser version and Chrome extension. All 4 places are showing that one-time password field (with the same 6-digit code and countdown clock). If I sign out of the website (in this case Monarch Money), and then sign back it, 1Password works as expected and auto-fills the 6-digit code when asked. I'm able to log into the Monarch mobile app as well after jumping over to 1Password to grab the code.
In response to your specific questions:
1. I did follow the steps for browser extension provided on the link you shared.
2. I do have a shared vault that I share with my wife, but this particular item is in my private vault.
3. I just viewed the history on the login item and I AM seeing the one-time password field. Although, there are several versions created in the last few days since I've been troubleshooting and turning MFA off and on so there were also several versions that did not have the field.
I just set it all up again and it's working as expected across all versions of 1Password. I'm going to log out of Monarch on all apps (but not turn off the MFA feature), give it a few hours, and then try to get in again later today. I'll follow up if the one-time password field disappears again.
