Will there ever be a CLI option or Connect Rest API to export all account data in .1pux format?
Hello,
Hope you are having a great day.
My goal:
I want to automatically backup my 1password account and export the 1pux file every week automatically.
Issue:
From what I have found ...

While I do appreciate the work you put in your tool, I still think this should be added to the CLI tools as soon as possible.
I recently had all my data deleted. A "hacker" got access to my e-mail browser session (they used a python script to scrape and upload my browser profile (including cookies and sessions). Using only access to e-mail they were able to delete my complete 1Password Family account. I had to wait the whole weekend in fear before Support finally responded and was able to restore my account. That's not the way I want to spend my weekends.
The process is described here: https://support.1password.com/delete-account/#get-help
Without any additional security questions, 2FA confirmation or even a cool down period people can delete your account if they have access to your e-mail.
Bitwarden has the same issue/flaw: https://bitwarden.com/help/delete-your-account/#delete-a-personal-account.
But the difference with 1Password is that you can Self Host and create periodic backups of the data. That makes Bitwarden the superior product at this moment. Only downside is that you have to sacrifice on usability and UI.
So please 1Password, add this feature as soon as possible. So people can create local backups of all the 1Password Vaults (and even all accounts in case of Family Accounts).
