Export from 1Password
Complete the following steps to export data from the 1Password desktop app:
tip
Currently, only 1Password 8 allows you to export multiple vaults at once. If you are using 1Password 8, skip to Step 3.
Navigate to the vault you'd like to export.
In your vault, select the items you would like to export. Hold Ctrl/Cmd to select multiple vault items, or select everything by pressing Ctrl/Cmd + A.
On Windows, select File → Export or right-click and select Export.
On macOS, select File → Export → All Items...
In the export window, specify a location and file format.
note
If you are exporting a
.csvfrom macOS, you must also select the All Fields radio button and check the Include Column Labels checkbox.
Import to Bitwarden
Data must be imported to Bitwarden from the web vault or CLI. Data is encrypted locally before being sent to the server for storage.
To import data to your vault:
Log in to the web vault at https://vault.bitwarden.com, or
https://your.bitwarden.domain.comif self-hosting.Select Tools from the top navigation bar.
Select Import Data from the tools menu.
From the format dropdown, choose a file format.
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.
Select Import Data to trigger the import.
After successful import, delete the import source file from your computer. This will protect you in the event your computer is compromised.
File attachments will need to be manually uploaded to your vault.
To import data to your vault from the CLI, use the following command:
bw import <format> <path>bw import requires a format (use bw import --formats to retrieve a list of formats) and a path, for example:
bw import lastpasscsv /Users/myaccount/Documents/mydata.csvAfter successful import, delete the import source file from your computer. This will protect you in the event your computer is compromised.
