Import Data from Keeper

Use this article for help exporting data from Keeper and importing into Bitwarden. Bitwarden supports import of Keeper data that is exported as a .csv file.

Export from Keeper

To export data from the Keeper web app:

  1. Select your account email in the top corner of the web app and select Settings from the dropdown:

    Export from Keeper
    Export from Keeper

  2. From the Settings pop out, select Export.

  3. Choose the CSV export file type, and select Export. You'll be required to confirm your master password in order to finish the export.

Import to Bitwarden

Data can be imported to Bitwarden from the web app, browser extension, desktop app, and CLI. Data is encrypted locally before being sent to the server for storage.

note

While some item types cannot be imported, you can still add them to a vault:

To import data to your vault:

  1. Select Tools.

  2. Select Import data:

    Import data
    Import data

  3. From the Vault dropdown menu, select where to save the data:

    • Individual vault: Select My vault and (optional) choose a Folder to put the items in.

      tip

      If you select a Folder here, any folders defined in your import file will be nested inside it when when they're created.

    • Organization vault: Select the organization vault’s name and choose a Collection. (The Manage collection permission is required.)

  4. From the File format dropdown menu, select the import file format.

  5. Select Choose File and pick the file or copy and paste your file’s contents into the text box.

    warning

    Importing does not check for duplicates. If you import the same file more than once or import items already in your vault, duplicate items will be created.

  6. Select Import data. If you are importing a password protected .json file, enter the password into the Confirm vault import window that appears.

  7. After your data is imported, delete the import source file from your computer. This will protect you in the event your computer is compromised.

If an “Import error” message appears, no data was added to your vault. Fix the import file issue and try again.
