1Password TeamHey there @girsch
My understanding of setting up two-factor authentication for Office 365 is that the first QR code you're shown only works with Microsoft Authenticator and isn't an industry standard-compliant code. I've heard that there's a link on that page to show you a standard TOTP QR code which you can then scan with 1Password in the browser or the main 1Password app.
Go to "My Microsoft account", then Security, and then the Security Dashboard. Click "⊕ Add a new way to sign in or verify", then "Use an app".
You'll then see this page below, and you should click the link I've highlighted to give you an industry-standard code that you can scan using 1Password.
Give that a try and let me know how you get on. I'll be here if you need further help. :)
