Hi, I am excited about the Masked Email functionality, but I am having trouble making it work. I am using Safari for Mac. When I go to the signup form for LinkedIn and select the Email field, I get a menu that prompts me to select either a LinkedIn email/password, one of my identities, or Suggestions. If I select Suggestions I get these options: Logins, Identities, Credit Cards, Generated Password. I did link my 1Password account to my Fastmail account. Is there something else I need to do to get this option? Thanks. John 1Password Version: 7.8.7 Extension Version: 7.8.7 OS Version: macOS 11.6

Hi jbrayton: For Safari, the Fastmail integration requires the 1Password for Safari extension. That extension does not integrate with 1Password 7. It can either operate with your 1Password membership separately from the app, or it can integrate with 1Password 8 for Mac Early Access. Jack

Thank you, @"jack.platten". I did not know about the separate 1Password for Safari extension. I installed that and disabled the 1Password 7 extension. Now clicking the 1Password button in an email field lets me choose one of my current email addresses. I still don't see a Masked Email option. What else could I be missing? John

jbrayton: Can you try going to a site and following the registration flow, instead of the change email flow? Right now, 1Password is only suggesting masked emails when creating new accounts, rather than changing emails, however there is a request filed to add the ability to update existing accounts to use a masked email, so I'll add your voice to the issue. :smile: Jack ref: dev/projects/customer-feature-requests#933

Hi @"jack.platten". I went to the registration flows for LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, and The Washington Post. The LinkedIn form is the one All I see in the newer Safari extension menu is my email addresses. I also installed the 1Password Early Access and looked on my.1password.com. Except for the ability to link to a Fastmail account from my.1password.com (which I did), I can't find any hint of an ability to generate a masked email address. John

Hi jbrayton, would you mind trying 1Password in the browser in a different browser on your Mac if you have one installed? I wasn't able to replicate this behavior using the sites you mentioned using Chrome and 1Password in the browser, so I'd just like to see if this is unique to Safari for you, or happening across all your browsers. Thanks!

We've been tracking sites where the masked email feature is not being presented, as expected. I'll be sure to add theguardian.com to the list of sites affected by this. In the meantime, the best way to achieve this is to create a masked email directly from Fastmail and pasting it into the fields. I realize this is not ideal, but should allow you to change your contact info for the guardian.com accordingly.

Ok thanks @ag_yaron. I might wait for 1Password 8. I rather like touch ID for unlocking!

Hey @sddawson ,

You don't need to uninstall the current extension, just disable it in Safari's preferences and install "1Password for Safari" from the Mac App Store.
The ramifications are exactly what you thought - you will have to unlock the extension separately from the desktop app (with your password, not Touch ID).

Can I also clear something up here? I’m running the standard 1P extension in Safari. Does this mean I should uninstall that extension, and install the different one mentioned above, even though I’m using 1P v7? What are the ramifications of doing that? Is it just that the extension is no longer linked to the desktop app, so needs to be unlocked separately etc?

Hi jbrayton,

Thanks for checking that for me. Would you mind trying something else for me? --

Disable the integration in Fastmail by selecting "Review access" in the 1Password row, then "Remove access": https://www.fastmail.com/settings/masked

Disable the integration in 1Password, by selecting the Fastmail entry, then "Deactivate Fastmail" : https://my.1password.com/integrations/active

Enable the integration in Fastmail: https://www.fastmail.com/settings/masked

After signing in to 1Password again to confirm the integration, verify that your Fastmail email address is shown in the Integration directory again: https://my.1password.com/integrations/active

At this point, the option for "Create masked email" should be visible on the LinkedIn sign up page you've provided.

I see the same with Chrome. I attached a screenshot with my email addresses partially blocked out.
