I migrated my 100's of Web logins from 1Password into Keychain yesterday ( quite a long process! ) using my Mac, and then tested it on my iPhone.

Then I tested it on my iPad by spot-checking logins that I had added.

Problem 1) none of them were there.
Fix: I fixed that by logging in/out of iCloud on my iPad. Afterwards, the newly added accounts were there.

Problem 2) I navigated to Macrumors and tested to see if it would prompt me to use the stored password. Nothing.
I navigated to Macrumors on my iPhone, and it prompted me to use the stored password.
The problem turned out to be that I was using a Smart keyboard with shortcuts disabled in Keyboard settings.
Fix: I turned shortcuts on and tested the login again. The shortcut bar appeared and prompted me to select which credentials I wanted to use to login.

WIN!

How did you do said migration...
 
How did you do said migration...
it wasn’t easy.

Export 1password logins to csv
install old, pre-quantum version of firefox ( I think that it was version 56)
reformat data to meet firefox data format requirements
import passwords into firefox
import firefox passwords into Safari
