Set up a DNS record for your 1Password account

Help

You need version 8.11.18-19 or later of the nightly release of 1Password in your browser to beta test Managed Credentials.

Before you can join the Managed Credentials beta, you’ll need to add a TXT record to your organization’s DNS:

  1. Sign in to your DNS hosting provider or domain registrar account and navigate to where you manage your DNS settings. This is often labeled as Zone File Settings, DNS Manager, or Domain Management.
  2. Add a new TXT record with the following record name, replacing company.tld with the domain: _onepassword_mc_beta_verification.company.tld. For example, if the email address associated with your 1Password account is wendy.appleseed@1password.com, the record name would be _onepassword_mc_beta_verification.1password.com.

    No TXT value is needed for this record. If your DNS provider requires one, you can use any placeholder text.

  3. Save the TXT record and wait at least 15 minutes for your changes to propagate.
  4. Open a terminal and run the following command for your device, replacing company.tld with your domain:
    • Mac and Linux: dig -t txt _onepassword_mc_beta_verification.company.tld.
    • Windows: nslookup -type=TXT _onepassword_mc_beta_verification.company.tld.

Your output should include an answer. If it doesn’t, wait a bit longer for propagation or verify your configuration.
