can I print the contents of a vault?

I have 5 vaults, 4 of which are for "retired" accounts/passwords which I keep for historical reasons. But I'd like to simplify my 1Password vaults by just printing off these old retired vaults, leaving only my active vault. But I can find no print function in v.8. Any help appreciated.


1Password Version: 8.7.0
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 12.4

  • Hi rmschne,

    Thanks for your feedback about this! While I don't have any updates to share presently, estate planning is certainly on our radar. I can see how it's one example where the flexibility to export certain vaults instead of entire accounts might be useful, and have filed a proxy vote on your behalf for our existing feature request.

    I appreciate you sharing your use case, and wish you and your family well. 🙂

    Are there plans to allow export and/or print of contents of a single vault? This is needed. While I accept you do not recommend it, you can always put big warning labels on this when someone tries. I'm trying to close down a vault holding stuff for a deceased family member. I want to put this information into the estate file.

    Important to do this.

    Hi @bhoward21,

    Great question! Printing the contents of a 1Password vault is not an available feature in 1Password 8. We've always strongly recommended against printing out your passwords, as it's not a secure way to store them.

    If you're not using 4 out of your 5 vaults on a regular basis, this would be a great opportunity to leverage the new collections feature in 1Password 8. With collections, you could create a collection for your one active vault, and then while using it, you will only see that vault in your sidebar.

    Let me know if that helps with your workflow.
