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.

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.

Import to Bitwarden

Data can be imported to Bitwarden from the web vault, CLI, desktop app, or browser extension. Data is encrypted locally before being sent to the server for storage.

To import data to your vault:

  1. Log in to the web vault at https://vault.bitwarden.com, https://vault.bitwarden.eu, or https://your.bitwarden.domain.com if self-hosting.

  2. Select Tools → Import data from the navigation:

    Import data
    Import data

  3. Complete the following fields from the drop down menus:

    • Vault: Select the import destination such as your individual vault or an organizational vault that you have access to.

    • Folder or Collection: Select if you would like the imported content moved to a specific folder or organization collection that you have access to.

    • File format: Select the import file format.

  4. Select Choose File and add the file to import or copy/paste the contents of your file into the input box.

    warning

    Importing does not check whether items in the file to import already exist in your vault. If you import multiple files or import files with items already in your vault, this will create duplicates.

  5. Select Import data to trigger the import. If you are importing a password protected .json file, enter the password into the Confirm vault import window that will appear.

  6. After successful import, delete the import source file from your computer. This will protect you in the event your computer is compromised.

Additional items such as file attachments, Sends, and trash will need to be manually uploaded to your vault.
