Hi,

i buyed the Software 1 Password and would like to switch to it from KeePassX. I did everything what is written inside the PDF https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/30286/mrcs-convert-to-1password-utility/p1 - it works fine. Except the thing with the folders. When i import the generated 1P_import.1pif it imports Tags instead of Folders.

Here is my command i used inside of my Terminal: perl5.16 convert_to_1p4.pl keepass2 -v -f ../pm_export.txt

What am i doing wrong and what can i do to get rid of this issue?

Thank you in advance
Cheers
Jens

    @medienvirus ,

    Add the --folder option to your command line.

    Option: --folders

    The --folders option supports the creation of Folders in 1Password, and places your records into the same folder hierarchy as supported in your password manager. This feature is disabled by default, because the converter is unaware of existing folders in your vault. If you use this option, all Folder names existing in the vault are ignored, and the converter will create new Folders, possibly with names identical to those already in your vault. In addition, re-running the converter and re-importing will duplicate the Folder names, since new unique folder identifiers are created each time the converter is run. For best results, import converted data only into a fresh vault.
