# Import from Myki Use this article for help exporting data from Myki and importing into Bitwarden. Myki data exports are available as `.csv` files. ## Export from Myki The process for exporting data from Myki is different depending on which platform you are using. Whenever possible, we recommend exporting from the Myki web app for the smoothest experience importing to Bitwarden. For help exporting from Myki, refer to [these Myki articles](https://support.myki.com/en/articles/6007957-how-to-export-my-myki-vault). ### Condition your CSVs **If you exported from a Myki mobile app**, you will be required to condition your `.csv` files for import into Bitwarden. This will primarily involve renaming column headers and, in some cases, re-ordering columns in the `.csv`. Each of the following sections will document first the format exported by Myki and second the format expected by Bitwarden. #### UserAccount.csv Exported: ``` Nickname,Url,Username,Password,Additional Info,Two Factor Secret,Status ``` Expected: ``` nickname,url,username,password,additionalInfo,twofaSecret,status,tags ``` #### CreditCard.csv Exported: ``` Nickname,Card Number,CardName,Exp Month,Exp Year,CVV,Additional Info,Status ``` Expected: ``` nickname,status,tags,cardNumber,cardName,exp_month,exp_year,cvv,additionalInfo ``` #### IdCard.csv Exported: ``` Nickname,Id Type,Id Number,Id Name,Id Issuance Date,Id Expiration Date,Id Country,Additional Info,Status ``` Expected: ``` nickname,status,tags,idType,idNumber,idName,idIssuanceDate,idExpirationDate,idCountry,additionalInfo ``` #### Address.csv Exported: ``` Nickname,First Name,Middle Name,Last Name,Email,First Address Line,Second Address Line,Title,Gender,Number,City,Country,Zip Code,Additional Info,Status ``` Expected: ``` nickname,status,tags,firstName,middleName,lastName,email,firstAddressLine,secondAddressLine,title,gender,number,city,country,zipCode,additionalInfo ``` #### Note.csv Exported: ``` Title,Content,Status ``` Expected: ``` nickname,status,content ``` #### User2FA.csv Exported: ``` Nickname,Additional Info,Two Factor Secret,Status ``` Expected: ``` nickname,status,tags,authToken,additionalInfo ``` ## Import to Bitwarden Data can be imported to Bitwarden from the web app, browser extension, desktop app, and CLI.

Direct import with CXP is often the easiest, but is only supported by a limited number of password manager apps at this time. ### Most common method for mobile For most devices, open a mobile browser. Log in to Bitwarden there and follow the [web app import steps](https://bitwarden.com/help/import-data/#tab-web-app-5ALQx9afSqWXX9jfXsY5sb/). ### Direct import with the Credential Exchange Protocol (CXP) Bitwarden supports the [FIDO Credential Exchange Protocol (CXP)](https://fidoalliance.org/specifications-credential-exchange-specifications). This facilitates an alternate, often faster import path by removing the need to manually download and handle a data file. The password manager app that currently stores your data must also support CXP, and the steps vary by application. #### CXP with iOS devices To import data using a mobile device with **iOS 26+**: 1. Open the other CXP-compatible password manager app where your data is saved. 2. Depending on the app, find the export data option and choose which items to import. You may need to complete extra steps, like logging in or confirming you want to move data. > [!NOTE] Apple Passwords CXP steps > In the **Apple Passwords** app, for example: > > 1. Tap the ⋯ **Options icon**. > 2. Tap **Export Data to Another App**. > 3. Check which passwords and passkeys you want to transfer from the list that appears. When done, tap **Continue**. 3. On the **Export Passwords** screen, tap **Continue**. 4. Select **Bitwarden** for the destination and then tap **Continue**. 5. Tap **Continue in "Bitwarden"**. 6. The Bitwarden app will open. Tap **Continue** to confirm the import. 7. Once complete, a message confirming that your data was imported will appear. #### CXP with Android devices To import data using a mobile device with **Android 10+**: 1. Open the Bitwarden app. 2. Tap **Settings**. 3. Tap **Vault**. 4. Tap **Import items**. 5. Tap **Import from another app**. 6. Select the other CXP-compatible password manager app where your data is saved and tap **Continue**. 7. Depending on the app, choose which items to import. You may need to complete extra steps, like logging in or confirming you want to move data. 8. Once complete, a message confirming that your data was imported will appear. > [!NOTE] Android CXP doesn't support Dashlane. > At this time, importing Dashlane data via CXP isn't supported on Android. ### Desktop To import data to your vault: 1.
