    Hello folks, 

    Right now, 1Password’s Bitwarden importer only supports items from a personal Bitwarden vault export. Items stored in shared collections aren’t included, so the import will fail if the export contains shared collection items. I've filed a feature request to have the team look into supporting shared collections in the future. 

    As a workaround, you can move shared items into a private/personal vault in Bitwarden, export, import into 1Password, then move items into the appropriate shared vaults in 1Password.

    You can find our guide on importing items from Bitwarden here: Move your data from Bitwarden to 1Password

That would seemingly indicate that you should take that data and move it into a vault that only you have access you. It cannot be imported from the shared vault. Looking at the message this would seem to be on the Bitwarden side. Bitwadren is not my specialty but this is how it reads to me. Once the data is in 1Password you could opt to place it in the shared vault as desired.

    I appreciate the reply but I'm not sure what it is you're suggesting that I do. The error message is not clear and I'm not sure what your solution is. I've already reached out to customer support at this point as this is interfering with my ability to test out 1password during my trial. The fact that onboarding is this troublesome isn't a good sign.
