Suggestion (This is a biggie request)... making 1pass information accessible from the internet

Ello!



Big request coming up ;)



After I started using 1password I've reset all my login-passwords for internet services with the strong-pass-generator, i.e. making me 100 % dependent on having 1password accessible at all times. At work, at my friends places and on public computers 1password is not installed and I have to fetch my login information from the iPhone ... This takes quite a long time (especially for the passwords which I need my master key to access. The fact that most of my passwords are 25-30 random characters/numbers/symbols also complicates things)...



What I would love is a feature akin to what Webjimbo does for Yojimbo; it is basically a web interface that makes it possible to access the database from any modern browser just by pointing it to a certain url. You then just login with your credentials and gain full access to the database.. Another option would be to have a "browser within the browser" ("a play within the play", ref. Hamlet) where you can hit a certain bookmark and automatically be forwarded and logged in to that page (like with allbookmarks).



For my proposal to work your computer "at home" needs to be logged in and running the web-service-client. NAT portforwarding also has to be activated in a potential router. Today I run Webjimbo and a few other services (Airvideo, iTunes library, Transmission etc ...) from a server in my basement and I would love to be able to toss 1password into the mix as well ...



Any thoughts on this? ...



Regards,

TH

    You can already do this. Your 1Password database file contains a full web interface. To access it, just right-click on 1Password.agilekeychain and select "show package contents". Open "1Password.html" in your browser. If you want to be able to access this file remotely and still have it synced automatically, dropbox seems to work well and is the generally recommended solution by Agile.

    Hi TH,



    I'll second Gordon's mention of 1PasswordAnywhere and Dropbox, we even have some guides available to show you how easy it is to setup the two services:

    Hope that helps,

    Yeah, it really does work well and you know you've got the security of Dropbox and our own encryption on the data file protecting your data at the same time.

    Hi there! But what is with editing or adding entries? That would be a reasonable feature too! Is this planned for future updates and what rough timeline do have?



    Thanks in advance!

    Sorry, I forgot to mention that in my 1password anywhere web interface the category wallet also displays entries from the category identities - is there a workaround for that?

    Hi, basdador!



    First of all welcome to the forums, thanks for joining our little community :-)

    At the moment it's not possible to edit items using 1PasswordAnywhere, it really wasn't designed for this purpose but instead to give you quick and easy access to your data. I will pass the request on to the developers, but given our limited resourced I don't know if this is something that we could implement in the near future.

    There's no workaround at the moment, but I know Dave Teare (Agile's co-founder) is looking into 1PasswordAnywhere at the moment to really give it some much needed love.



    Sorry I can't give you better answers right now, keep an eye on our [URL="http://blog.agile.ws"]blog[/URL] for announcements about updates to features like 1PasswordAnywhere, we often post some sneak peaks too :-)
