How to export a single vault
I have multiple vaults for multiple organizations I support. I have a need to export one (or maybe two) vaults to another password manager to comply with changes those organizations are making. The o...
Hello folks,
Thank you for taking the time to explain your use case so that we can make 1Password better for everyone. Currently, the export tool will export your entire account and there's isn't an option to export a single vault or a select list of items. While I can't make any promises, I've filed a feature request to have the team look into adding such an option in the future.That being said, as a workaround, you can use Travel Mode to temporarily remove all vaults but the vault(s) that you'd like to export from the 1Password app on your Mac, Linux device, or Windows PC. When Travel Mode is turned on, the export will only contain items from the vaults that you've marked as Safe for Travel:
- Use Travel Mode to temporarily remove all but the vault that you'd like to export: Use Travel Mode to remove vaults from your devices when you travel
- Use the 1Password desktop app to export data to a CSV or 1PUX file: How to export your data from the 1Password desktop app
- Confirm that the exported file only contains data from the vault that you wanted to export.
- Turn off Travel Mode so that all of your vaults appear in the desktop app again.

For the record... 3 times this week I've needed to export a single vault to CSV for parting clients that do not use 1Password.
We as an agency are not looking at the situation of parting ways with a client as an opportunity to onboard more 1Password users for AgileBits (granting vault access), we need to provide them with their data with the least effort, highest speed possible.
This is hands down my single biggest gripe about 1Password.
I just tried MrC 's tool as it seemed like it would be faster than my previous time consuming manual method.
Running the MacOSConvertHelper on the exported .1pux file with the options:
--to_format csv --match_vault 'Client Vault Name'
worked well. This will now be my preferred method for exports.
