Import data
Passwork lets you quickly import passwords kept in JSON, KeePass XML and CSV formats into a specific vault, folder, or into the Passwork root directory. JSON and XML files are used to transfer structured information, while CSV stores raw data as plain text.
To set up the import, open the Vault settings dropdown menu and click Import data:
You can import data both automatically from a file or via manual entry.
File import
You can upload files in JSON, KeePass XML and CSV formats.
To do so, click Choose file button in the pop-up window:
JSON and KeePass XML
When you upload a JSON or KeePass XML file, you will be able to choose which vaults to import and choose the importing method.
When choosing a target location, you will be able to:
- Save structure and import to a specific directory: All selected vaults will be turned into folders inside the target vault or folder. Folder structure will be restored and all passwords will remain in their original folders.
- Ignore structure and import to a specific directory: All passwords will be saved to a specific vault or folder and no structure will be recreated.
- Save structure and import to the root directory: All selected vaults and their structure will be recreated. Passwords will be saved in the folders they were exported from. When migrating from previous versions of Passwork, you will also be able to select the type that will be assigned to the new vaults.
CSV
When you upload a CSV file, a data preview window will open. Here you will also need to choose a delimiter.
Subsequent steps of CSV file import are identical to the steps from the manual entry section.
