Python `create_vaults_from_input.py` example script fails on Windows

[ag-adampike]

In Windows environments, getMyUUID() catches an error on every run of the script, even after recently signing in. The response from the subprocess.run implementation of 1Password CLI seems to include a non-zero return code in every case, so the script exits here:

I've not yet been able to work out why this is an issue for Windows, but it's easily reproduced. The error message consistently includes account not signed in.

Does this happen both when using the desktop integration and when signing into op manually?

[ag-adampike]

This error happens on Windows when 1Password CLI is integrated with 1Password for Windows. The desktop app integration does not seem to allow a subprocess to delegate sign in using the desktop app.

A workaround is to sign in manually: https://developer.1password.com/docs/cli/sign-in-manually/

The script behaves as expected on Windows when signing in manually.
