When trying to do a standard PIF format export, version 7 now warns that it cannot complete it all (?) because some of the data is in document format, which is not (yet?) supported.

Am I understanding this correctly: what can be done at this point, please… is the remainder of the data safely exported?

TIA!


1Password Version: 7
Extension Version: n/a
OS Version: 10.13.4
Sync Type: n/a

    Yes! I'm sorry for the confusion there. 1PIF is a plaintext export format, and Documents are files uploaded to a 1Password.com account, so that cannot be included in that. They can, however, be downloaded in the app and then saved locally. Cheers! :)

    Thanks, brenty:

    1. does everything else get saved, though, please?
    2. is there any easy way to find them from within 1P 7 to save them out first, as you suggest
    3. this is different from v.6, isn't it… I haven't seen that warning before?

    Appreciated!

    Hey Mark,

    I noticed you also have a conversation going with brenty in email so let’s keep that going there. I’m closing this discussion so support wires aren’t getting tangled up between both places. Cheers! :chuffed:

    Yes, everything but Documents is exported in 1PIF.

    Yep! Documents is its own category in the sidebar, between Passwords and Bank accounts. :)

    It's not a difference in the app, but in how 1Password.com accounts work compared to local vaults. Local vaults use file attachments; 1Password.com stores uploaded files as Documents.
