Import & Export

Import Data

Where: Settings → Data & Sync → Import, or Tools → Import Data

DavianVault can import passwords from other password managers so you don't have to re-enter everything manually.

Supported Sources

Source	File Format	What's Imported
1Password	CSV file	Passwords with account names, emails, usernames, passwords, URLs
LastPass	CSV file	Passwords with account names, emails, usernames, passwords, URLs
Bitwarden	JSON file	Passwords with account names, emails, usernames, passwords, URLs
Generic CSV	CSV file	Any CSV with recognizable column headers

How to Import

1. Open the Import screen (from Tools or Settings)
2. Tap the source you're importing from (e.g., "1Password")
3. A file picker opens — navigate to and select the export file from your other password manager
4. The app parses the file and extracts all valid entries
5. A success message tells you how many entries were imported (e.g., "Imported 47 entries")
6. You're returned to the previous screen

How to Export from Other Password Managers

Before importing into DavianVault, you need to export from your current password manager:

1Password:

1. Open 1Password on your computer
2. Go to File → Export → CSV
3. Save the file

LastPass:

1. Log in to LastPass
2. Go to Account Options → Advanced → Export
3. Save the CSV file

Bitwarden:

1. Log in to Bitwarden
2. Go to Tools → Export Vault
3. Choose JSON format
4. Save the file

Generic CSV: If your password manager isn't listed above, export as CSV. DavianVault will attempt to match common column headers (name, url, username, email, password, notes).

Tips

• If the import file contains no valid entries, you'll see a warning: "No valid entries found"
• Imported entries appear as passwords in your vault
• You can organize imported entries into folders after import

Export Data

Export functionality is available for migrating your DavianVault data to another service or for creating a readable backup.

Supported Export Formats

Format	Description
DavianVault JSON	Full export including all metadata — best for complete backup
CSV	Simple spreadsheet format — compatible with most programs
Bitwarden JSON	For migrating to Bitwarden

How to Export

1. Open the Export section
2. Choose your desired format
3. For CSV and Bitwarden JSON: a security warning appears explaining that exported data will be in plain text (unencrypted)
4. Confirm to proceed
5. A file save dialog opens — choose where to save the file
6. A success message confirms the export

What's Exported

• Passwords (account names, emails, usernames, passwords, URLs)
• Secure notes (titles and content)
• Credit cards (names, numbers, expiry, CVV)

Attachments are NOT exported — they must be downloaded individually from the document detail screens.

Security Warning

Exported CSV and JSON files contain your data in plain text. Handle these files with extreme care:

• Transfer them securely
• Delete the files after use
• Never email unencrypted export files
• Never store them in an unencrypted location

Data Requirements

Export is only available when your vault contains exportable data (at least one password, note, or card). If the vault is empty, export options are disabled.
