Moving to a new shared vault lost all my attachments

Hi @kiylea2, 👋🏻

You're spot on that it isn't possible to share your Private vault so you're taking the right approach using a shared vault!

Unfortunately at this time it isn't possible to maintain links between items when moving them from one vault to another, so the only way to recreate them the same way you had them would be to move the attachment as well and manually create a new link. I apologize for any inconvenience this causes.

Since moving items is essentially a copy + delete operation, you can find the "original" versions of these items in the "Recently Deleted" section at the bottom of the left side menu:

We do have an open feature request for the app to suggest linked items be moved together and maintain those connections so I'll add your voice to that.

In case it helps in the future, you can also explore adding attachments directly to an item:

The drawback here being that you won't be able to link multiple items to this attachment, but when it exists as part of the item, it will be moved along with it. I recognize this isn't the perfect alternative and will be adding some additional notes to the topic internally so we can explore further.

Let me know if you have any questions. 🙂
