open a specific entry directly via hotkey/url/ other?

Hi all

i searched for this across the forums and google but have not found a solution to something that looks simple (to me at least :))

i have 2-4 entries i use quite often. i want to assign a shortcut that will open these entries for quick viewing them. Is that possible at all (maybe via a url or some other UUID way?)

thx so much

    Thanks for confirming.

    Although we cannot assign specific shortcut to directly open certain items, I want to offer a couple of workarounds to achieve what you are looking for:

    A. You can set those items as Favorites, this way you can open the Favorites section and access the items quickly:
    -

    B. You can give those items a unique title for searching. Then, you can utilize Quick Access to open them in detail. Here are the steps:
    1. Use the default shortcut shift + cmd + space to open the Quick Access Window.
    1. Search for the item.
    1. If it is a login item, you can use shift-cmd-O to open the item in the app.
    1. If it is another type of item other than a login item, you can hit the Enter key to "View Details".

    C. You can copy the private link of the item:
    -
    This way, you can save and open those private links from the browser bookmarks. You should see the following prompt the first time you open the private link:
    -
    - I'd recommend selecting the "Always" option and clicking on the Open 1Password.app. This way, your 1Password app will open the item details.

    Hope the above helps.

    May I confirm your use case here:

    • Are you trying to "Open & Fill" certain login items in the browser quickly with shortcuts?

    • Are you trying to open the item details of certain items quickly in the 1Password app?

    Can you elaborate on your case if it doesn't match the above?
