Tool -> Remove Duplicates Gone?

Hi,

So upgraded from my local vault to subscription. This didn't go particularly smoothly resulting in a large amount of duplicate entries (probably incorrectly I thought the it would merger entries when moving the various devices to iCloud).

Anyways, so there used to be a tool for removing duplicates. I can't seem to find it in 8.0; it certainly came in handy now and then.

Cheers,

Julian

    Hi @jnd!

    (probably incorrectly I thought the it would merger entries when moving the various devices to iCloud).

    When you say "merging", it makes me think that you might have actually migrated the data multiple times, once from each device. Could this be what happened?

    At the moment the duplicate removal feature has not made it into the 1Password 8 Early Access, so I recommend running the tool on 1Password 7. You can then switch back to the Early Access once the duplicates have been removed :+1:

    You might have duplicate vaults. I experienced this when I migrated, too. After I renamed a vault, after migrating another device this added the previous vault from that device again. It's quite easy though to browse through all objects and remove duplicates or remove a duplicate added vault, but it's tedious work …
