Tool for detecting and removing duplicates? [Available in 8.10.18]

How about a duplicate detection/merging test in Labs? (By duplicate, I mean near-duplicate.)

Hello everyone! 👋

With the release of the latest beta for Mac, Windows, and Linux you can now see a list of your duplicate items in the app. Choose “Items with duplicates” in your Watchtower dashboard to see or delete all of your duplicates.

Make sure that you're running the latest beta to see the feature. As always, please let us know if you find the tool useful and if you have any suggestions for the team. 🙂

Awesome sauce!

Indeed!

Thank you! Delighted to see this.

I only found four duplicates, even though I have many near duplicates (same password, differ in trivial metadata.) Could you expand this feature to find items with the same password but different metadata?

Also, how about a way to bulk change http: to https: in Watchtower/unsecured websites.

That's hilarious. I JUST wrote a CLI tool to do this after it drove me crazy enough. I should have checked here first!
For posterity's sake, here it is: https://github.com/Taytay/1password_utils

Taytay, This is good but there are many people who will have no idea how to use this. You should make a stand alone app and then sell it to 1Password.

Thanks for sharing your work! I hope that you find the new built-in “Items with duplicates” feature in Watchtower useful. 🙂

Obligatory disclaimer: 1Password hasn't reviewed the tool posted by @Taytay and folks wanting to try it do so at their own risk.

Since the 1Password 8 beta now has a tool to see and remove duplicate items I'm closing this thread. If you run into any trouble with the duplicates tool, or have any suggestions on how to make it better, then please open a new thread.

Thank you again for all of the feedback! 🙂
