If Touch ID isn't even showing up in System Preferences, then you may need to talk to Apple to troubleshoot that first. 1Password can only use Touch ID to unlock if the system recognises it and we won't be able to do anything about it not showing up in System Preferences. Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support

Check if there is a new version of macOS available for your Mac. Sometimes, Touch ID becomes unavailable when a new update has been downloaded but not installed. Update macOS on Mac - Apple Support
If you're using the latest publicly-available version of macOS for your Mac and you're still having trouble, I'd like to ask you to create a diagnostics report from your Mac:
Sending Diagnostics Reports (Mac)
Attach the diagnostics to an email message addressed to support+forum@1password.com
