I have several logins that somehow have been duplicated in 1Password 8. This may have happened in different times when I've attempted to migrate my 1Password 7 data to my 1Password.com account.

In any case, I have a load of duplicates in 1Password 8 and it would be very helpful if there were an efficient tool or feature to help me merge/dedupe these entries (and ideally test them to make sure that I'm preserving the correct credentials).

Any thoughts/ideas for how to handle this situation?

OS Version: macOS 12.0.1 (21A559)

I would also love some sort of tool to deal with duplicates. I've been using both Keychain and 1Password for many years. I'm finally tired enough of them fighting each other and would like to turn off Keychain entirely. However I would like to import those. But I will be stuck with tons of duplicates. If some sort of duplicate tool was available, I would be able to move exclusively to 1Password.

Same here, easily a thousand duplicates. Very annoying :-(

I'm very sorry to hear this, @codebee. I'll add a vote on your behalf for a duplicate removal tool. Thanks for letting us know that this is relevant to your use case.

This sort of feels like we're in grade school voting on what type of class pet we want to adopt.
Unfortunately, it seems like this is all the support team is able to provide for us.
Please add me my name to the "it's been years so please fix this already" column.
Thanks.

PLEASE add a Deduplicator tool. I have over 1k of dupes.

I see several comments from 1Password staff that this is a "heavy lift" and you don't have time to do this and it is a little over the horizon at the moment or similar comments.
This must surely take some priority. The headlights you see over the horizon may not be what would would like to see from your loyal customers.

1password has been destroyed with this new update lots and lots of duplicates and no way of deleting them. I may have to transfer to another password manager to get out of this muddle.
