    Hi @robbierob ,

    I can't tell for sure, but according to various discussions I've read at the TrueKey website, they have been promising an Export feature for quite a while, and have yet to deliver.

    You'll need to be able to export your data (in a robust, unencrypted format). Can you check if you are able to, and if so, which formats?

    Hi @robbierob,

    MrC is quite the expert when it comes to importing data from other apps into 1Password, so hopefully he'll be able to help you out with this - although as he said, it really depends on whether or not TrueKey allows you to export your data, and in what format. We look forward to hearing back from your about that! :)

    Intel True Key does have an export function. It exports a json file. What is the timeline to get an import feature added to 1password for this format?

  • Hi @glenng5566 ,

    We currently do not have a timeline on importing data in json format. To be honest, I believe this is the first instance of a password manager we've seen that exports as JSON. Does True Key have an option to export as CSV or another format?

    Regards,
    Kevin

    @glenng5566,

    I can take a look at creating a converter if it does export un-encrypted JSON. However, I'm still pretty swamped right now.

    @ag_kevin - both Clipperz and F-Secure Key export as JSON.

    There is no option to export to .csv. The only way to export is to a .json file and it is unencrypted.

    @glenng5566 ,

    The converter only took a few minutes to create, so I have one available for you to test. Download the 1.09 version of the converter in Testing Bits, as mentioned in the converter suite. The README.pdf has instructions.

    I didn't create an extensive list of login entries, just a few samples, so let me know if you find any issues.

    True Key version required is 1.12, and it exports only Logins.

    Hi Mrc!

    First of all thanks for making this tool, really appreciate it! Im trying to switch from truekey to lastpass and move all my passwords over

    Once i have exported my truekey passwords into a .json file that it gives it

    I then try to drag that file into your apple script utility but there is no option to select Truekey

    What should i do? I tried reading the instructions but i dont see a mentionned soloution for truekey :(

    Hi (probably not THE) @TomCruise,

    You're welcome.

    Sorry, I'd forgotten to update the AppleScript Helper with the TrueKey definition. I've just updated the 1.09 version in Testing Bits. Grab the update!

    I hope that with Mr.C's help, you are now all set up with your data securely inside 1Password, but if you have any other questions, we're here for yoU!
