\n
\n\u2705 What you need first
\n\n- You must be on the 1Password Families plan. Vault sharing is built into that plan. (support.1password.com)
\n- The person you want to share with must be added to your family group and accepted their invite. (support.1password.com)

\n\ud83d\udd10 How vaults work in Family
\nThere are a couple of types of vaults in a family setup:
\n\n- The Shared vault is accessible by all family members. It\u2019s great for things everyone in the family might need (Wi-Fi, home network, streaming passwords). (support.1password.com)
\n- Each person also has a Private vault where they keep items only they should see. (support.1password.com)
\n
\n
\n\ud83d\udee0 Sharing a vault with specific family members (not the whole family)
\nIf you want to share something with just some family members (for example your spouse, not kids, or vice versa), here\u2019s what to do:
\n1. Create a new vault (if needed)
\n\n- In the 1Password app (Mac, iOS, Windows, Android, Linux) or on 1Password.com, create a new vault. Name it something clear for the people involved. (support.1password.com)
\n
\n2. Share the vault
\n\n- Open the vault in the app or on 1Password.com
\n- Find the \u201cManage Access\u201d or \u201cShare Vault\u201d option.
\n- Add people (your family members) who should have access. Then save. (support.1password.com)
\n
\n3. Set permissions
\n\n- Choose what kind of access each person has (view, edit, delete, manage).
\n- If you want someone to be able to change the vault itself (rename, delete it), give them \u201cmanage\u201d access. To just see items, allow \u201cview/edit\u201d without manage. (support.1password.com)
\n
\n
\n\u26a0 Common issues & tips
\n\n- If someone doesn\u2019t see the vault, make sure they accepted their family invite. Otherwise, they won\u2019t get access to anything shared. (support.1password.com)
\n- The Shared vault automatically appears for every family member. But if you're sharing a custom vault (with only select people), members will only see it if you've shared it with them. (support.1password.com)
\n- As a Family Organizer (the person who set up the plan), you have full ability to manage vaults, permissions, add/remove members, etc. (support.1password.com)
\n

\nIf you tell me whether you\u2019re using a particular device (like iPhone, Android, Windows), I can guide you step-by-step for your setup. Do you want that?

\n
\n\u2705 Prerequisites
\n\n- Confirm you\u2019re both invited to and part of the same Families account. A Family Organizer must send and you must accept the invite. (support.1password.com)

\n\ud83d\udda5 Using the 1Password App on Windows 11
\nHere\u2019s how to share a vault using the desktop app:
\n\n- \n
Open and unlock 1Password on your Windows machine.
\n \n- \n
In the left sidebar, locate the vault you want to share.
\n\n- If you don\u2019t need anything customized, you can also use the default Shared vault, which is accessible to everyone in the family. (support.1password.com)
\n
\n \n- \n
Right-click the vault \u2192 select \u201cManage Access\u201d. (support.1password.com)
\n \n- \n
Click \u201cAdd People\u201d.
\n \n- \n
Choose the family member(s) you want to share with.
\n \n- \n
Click Next, then Share. (support.1password.com)
\n \n- \n
Once shared, you can adjust each person's permissions:
\n\n- View & use items (but not edit or delete)
\n- Edit items
\n- Manage vault (rename or delete the vault, change access for others) (support.1password.com)
\n
\n \n
\n
\n\ud83c\udf10 Using the 1Password.com Website
\nYou can also manage vault sharing through the web interface:
\n\n- \n
Sign in to your account at 1Password.com.
\n \n- \n
From the sidebar, choose Vaults, then select the one you want to share. (support.1password.com)
\n \n- \n
Click Share Vault (or Manage Access) and add the family member\u2019s name or email who already belongs to your Families account. (support.1password.com)
\n \n- \n
Set permissions for each person as desired and Save. (support.1password.com)
\n \n
\n
\n\u26a0\ufe0f Tips & Common Issues
\n\n- If \u201cManage Access\u201d is greyed out, check if you have the correct vault permissions (you may need organizer status or permission to manage vaults). (support.1password.com)
\n- Items in the vault move/appear for everyone who has been shared to have access. If someone doesn't see a vault, make sure they\u2019ve accepted their Family account invitation. (support.1password.com)
\n- If you only want to share individual items (not the entire vault), you can securely share specific items via a link. But managing vaults is the better method if you need ongoing shared access. (support.1password.com)
\n
\n
\nIf you tell me whether you\u2019re trying to share with just one person (like a spouse), or multiple members, I can help you pick the best permissions to use. Do you want help deciding that?

\n\ud83d\udd0d Steps to find \u201cManage Access\u201d and share a vault
\n\n- \n
Open the 1Password app on your Windows 11 PC and unlock it with your password or biometric login.
\n \n- \n
In the left sidebar, find the vault you want to share. This might be your Shared vault (accessible to everyone in the family) or a custom/private vault you created. (support.1password.com)
\n \n- \n
Right-click the vault name. In the context menu that appears, click \u201cManage Access\u201d. (1password.com)
\n \n- \n
In the Manage Access window, click \u201cAdd People\u201d. You\u2019ll see a list of your family members (and possibly groups or email invites). Select the person(s) you want to share the vault with. (manual.dxable.com)
\n \n- \n
After selecting who gets access, click \u201cNext\u201d, then \u201cShare\u201d to finalize. (manual.dxable.com)
\n \n- \n
You may also be asked to set permissions \u2014 whether that person can just view items, also edit, or even manage the vault (i.e. change permissions or delete). Make sure to set those as needed. (support.1password.com)
\n \n
\n
\nIf you don\u2019t see \u201cManage Access\u201d when you right-click the vault, it might be:
\n\n- You\u2019re using a plan without sharing features (not Families or Teams)
\n- You\u2019re not the organizer or don\u2019t have permission to manage vaults
\n- The invitation for the family account hasn\u2019t been accepted yet by the person you want to share with

\n\ud83d\udd0d Steps to Access a Shared Vault
\n\n- Open the 1Password app on your Windows 11 computer.
\n- Unlock it with your master password or Windows Hello.
\n- Look at the sidebar on the left. There should be a list of vaults\u2014these are usually labeled things like Private, Shared, or custom names you\u2019ve created. (support.1password.com)

\n- There might be multiple vaults in your account. Look through the list to see if \u201cShared\u201d shows up, or a vault with a name that indicates sharing. (support.1password.com)

\n
\nIf you tell me the names of the vaults you do see, I can help figure out which one is likely the shared one!

"content": "Here are two easy ways to share an item (like a password, note, or credit card info) with a family member in 1Password:
\n
\n1. Share via an existing Shared Vault
\nIf you both already have access to a shared vault, the simplest way is to move the item into that vault. Everyone who has access to the vault will then be able to view and use the item.
\nHow to do that:
\n\n- Open and unlock 1Password.
\n- Find the item you want to share.
\n- Move or copy the item into a vault that you share with the family member. This could be the Shared vault or another vault that you\u2019ve selected to share with them. (support.1password.com)
\n- Now they can open that vault and see the item. (support.1password.com)
\n
\n
\n2. Share a single item link
\nIf you don\u2019t want to move the item to a shared vault, or the person doesn\u2019t have access to one, you can send a secure link to just that item.
\nHow to share a single item:
\n\n- Open and unlock 1Password.
\n- Find the item you want to share.
\n- Select the item \u2192 find the Share button or icon. (Might look like a box with an arrow) (support.1password.com)
\n- Choose how you want the link to work:
\n\u2022 Who can access it (you can limit to specific people or open to anyone with the link)
\n\u2022 When it expires, etc. (support.1password.com) \n- Copy the link and send it via email, text, or whatever you prefer. (support.1password.com)

\n
\n\u2705 How to Move or Copy an Item in Windows (1Password 8)
\n\n- Open and unlock 1Password on your Windows computer.
\n- In the left sidebar, navigate to Private vault and open it.
\n- Find and select the item you want to share.
\n- To move the item:
\n\u2022 Right-click the item \u2192 Move \u2192 choose the Shared vault.
\n\u2022 Or drag the item from your Private vault in the sidebar and drop it into the Shared vault. \n- To copy instead of moving (so the item stays in Private and Shared):
\n\u2022 Right-click \u2192 Duplicate, then when prompted choose the Shared vault.
\n\u2022 Alternatively, hold the Ctrl key while dragging the item into the Shared vault. (support.1password.com) \n
\n
\n\u26a0\ufe0f Things to Know
\n\n- When you move an item: it creates a copy in the Shared vault and deletes the original from your Private vault. (support.1password.com)
\n- When you copy (via \u201cDuplicate\u201d or Ctrl-drag): it keeps the item in both vaults. However, changes in one copy won\u2019t sync with the other. (support.1password.com)
\n- Private vaults are exclusive\u2014you generally can\u2019t move items into someone else\u2019s Private vault unless they manually move them from Shared to their own Private. (1password.community)
