re-import .1pux file

Hello,

When moving 1password.com to 1password.eu, I would like to export from .com and re-import in .eu.
I have created (export) 1pux file and it seems there is no import option in application (macos) and web vault interfaces.
Of course i manage to duplicate items from .com vault to .eu vault in application and i manage to copy all my items and migrate my datas.

BUT, to perform backup / restore, i think it should be possible to import existing .1pux file directly on web vault interface and application.
Will it be possible in the next future ? if yes, when ? If no, is there an alternative ?

thanks

    I too am interested in import/export functionality in 1Password 8.

    What is a 1pux file and how is it different than the 1pif files?
    What is the roadmap for import capabilities in the app and/or the web?
    When will the app be able to export in other common formats like csv?

    Hi @cyayon

    Importing has not been implemented (yet). This is something we intend to have completed prior to the stable release of 1Password 8. Also, please note that the 1pux format is unencrypted, and as such the storage and transport of such files should be carefully considered. I'd recommend deleting any that aren't actively being used. We will be offering 1pex exporting/importing as well, which will be an encrypted format.

    As far as I'm aware there isn't currently a lossless way to move between 1Password regions (e.g. 1Password.com to 1Password.eu), other than by manually re-creating the items. The challenge is files (Documents and attachments). The apps do not support moving these at present.

    BUT, to perform backup / restore, i think it should be possible to import existing .1pux file directly on web vault interface and application.

    I agree, though I would suggest using 1pex for this rather than 1pux once implemented.
