Thank you for the screenshot. It looks like you're being prompted for a physical security key in order to authenticate your 1Password account. Using a passkey instead of a physical security key for your 1Password account's two-factor authentication isn't supported. I recommend that you remove the passkey since it won't work:
- Use your authenticator app to log in to your 1Password account on 1Password.com (in the browser, not the app).
- Click your name in the top right and choose My Profile.
- Click More Actions > Manage Two-Factor Authentication.
- Remove the passkey that you saved.
- Remove the passkey from where you saved it as well.
Then, if you do have a physical security key like a YubiKey or Titan, you can add the security key using this guide: Use your security key as a second factor for your 1Password account
If you see a 1Password prompt appear offering to save a passkey then please press the security key icon in the prompt to use your physical security key instead:
Let me know if you have any questions.
