With 1Password Business, you can use a policy to manage whether or not employees can use your verified domains to create 1Password accounts outside your 1Password Business account.
If your account has verified domains, the account creation policy is turned off by default which prevents employees from creating new accounts with those domains. You can change your account creation policy if you’re an owner, administrator, or part of a group with the Manage Settings permission.
Considerations
Before you modify your account creation policy, consider the impact that it will have on your team:
- This policy will regulate whether or not employees can create new accounts outside of your business account. It won’t impact team members accepting invitations to join your account.
- If you turn off the policy, employees will be prevented from creating accounts using verified domains. Alternatively, if you turn the policy on, employees will be allowed to create accounts.
- The account creation policy will only apply to the region that your 1Password account is hosted in.
- If you turn the policy off, any accounts created with verified domains before this change will not be affected.
Manage the policy
- Sign in to your account on 1Password.com.
- Select Policies in the sidebar.
- Select Manage under the Authentication policy.
- Turn Account Creation on or off.
To turn off the policy, you'll need to have at least one verified domain.
- Select Save.
If the account creation policy is off, employees that try to create a new 1Password account with a verified domain will see a message to reach out to their IT team.
The account creation policy won’t impact employees accepting invitations to join your existing business account.
