1P_Dave Indeed, the item was moved between two vaults. I checked and found an identical deleted item in the old vault which does have the history.
This is bad. Firstly, “move” implies transferring the original item instead of duplicating it and deleting the old. Secondly, and most importantly, it should transfer the whole item and not lose any data! Long edit histories over years might contain very valuable data for an item. Ask your developers if you could delete their underlying Git repositories - I bet they won’t like it. Currently, all that history data is silently lost! Now I need to figure out how much history data I have lost over the years thanks to 1Password vaults “move” being “incomplete copy”.
