You need a 1Password entry like this with your API key/secret stored in it.

You also need op (the 1Password CLI) set up, as well as jq. You may need to mess around with the jq selectors depending on how your API key/secret are stored.

The script above: pop it in a bash script, make sure it is in your path. When you call it, it'll ask you for your 1P passphrase and then set environment variables as appropriate from your vault. If you've got multiple credentials for a particular service, you should give them nice distinctive names.
