Adding a Password

This article will walk you through adding a new password into the 1Password app. We'll start by determining what type of login we would like to save than move onto adding the login details.

If using the 1Password extension or mobile app the basic steps are the same however the UI may look different.

1. Logon to the 1Password app.

2. Within the left-hand sidebar, select the vault you'd like the password to be saved in.

3. In the top right-hand corner, select + New Item.

4. Select the type of credential you'd like to add. If unsure select Login (the most common type).

Fill in the Details

A window will appear asking for the account details. We'll go through each section separately.

While overwhelming, only a few fields need to be filled in.

1. Enter what you'd like to call this account, for example the company name.

2. Enter the account's username and password.

3. Enter the account holder's website (optional but helpful).

4. Add billing code tags onto this new login.

Tags help organize the passwords stored within a Vault. For more information see Working with Tags.

5. Lastly, click Save to save the new login.
