Use this article for help exporting data from Firefox and importing into Bitwarden.

## Export from Firefox
|
|
|
|
Exporting from Firefox can look a little different depending on which version you're using, or if you're using a Firefox-based browser like Tor Browser or Waterfox:
|
|
|
|
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" id="myTab" role="tablist">
|
|
<li class="nav-item" role="presentation">
|
|
<a class="nav-link active" id="latesttab" data-bs-toggle="tab" data-target="#latest" role="tab" aria-controls="latest" aria-selected="true">Latest Version</a>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li class="nav-item" role="presentation">
|
|
<a class="nav-link" id="oldertab" data-bs-toggle="tab" data-target="#older" role="tab" aria-controls="older" aria-selected="false">Older Versions</a>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li class="nav-item" role="presentation">
|
|
<a class="nav-link" id="basedtab" data-bs-toggle="tab" data-target="#based" role="tab" aria-controls="based" aria-selected="false">Firefox-based</a>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<div class="tab-content" id="clientsContent">
|
|
<div class="tab-pane show active" id="latest" role="tabpanel" aria-labelledby="latesttab">
|
|
{% capture latest %}
|
|
|
|
### Export from Latest Version
|
|
|
|
To export logins from the latest version of Firefox:
|
|
|
|
1. Using the address bar, navigate to `about:logins`
|
|
2. Select the {% icon fa-ellipsis-h %} menu button from the top right and select **Export Logins...** from the dropdown.
|
|
|
|
You will be prompted to specify a location to save your login export to.
|
|
|
|
Firefox will export your logins as a `.csv`.
|
|
|
|
{% endcapture %}
|
|
{{ latest | markdownify }}
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="tab-pane" id="older" role="tabpanel" aria-labelledby="oldertab">
|
|
{% capture older %}
|
|
|
|
### Export from Older Versions
|
|
|
|
Some older versions of Firefox do not support native export. Complete the following steps to export using an FF Password Exporter.
|
|
|
|
1. [Download](https://github.com/kspearrin/ff-password-exporter){:target="\_blank"}, install, and open the FF Password Exporter.
|
|
2. Select a User Profile from the Detected Firefox User Profiles, or from a specified custom profile directory. If you have set a Master Password for the User Profile, enter it:
|
|
|
|
{% image importing/ff-password-exporter.png %}
|
|
3. Select the **Export Passwords** button.
|
|
4. Choose `.csv` for the file format, and save the file to your device.
|
|
|
|
{% endcapture %}
|
|
{{ older | markdownify }}
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="tab-pane" id="based" role="tabpanel" aria-labelledby="basedtab">
|
|
{% capture based %}
|
|
|
|
### Export from Firefox-based Browsers
|
|
|
|
Some Firefox-based browsers offer login export in a different location than vanilla Firefox. If the steps to import from the **Latest Version** don't work, try the following:
|
|
|
|
1. Using the address bar, navigate to `about:preferences#privacy`.
|
|
2. Click the **Saved Logins** button.
|
|
3. Click the {% icon fa-ellipsis-h %} menu button from the top right and select **Export Logins** from the dropdown.
|
|
|
|
You will be prompted to specify a location to save your login export.
|
|
|
|
Most Firefox-based browsers will export your logins as a `.csv`.
|
|
|
|
{% endcapture %}
|
|
{{ based | markdownify }}
|
|
</div>
|
|
</div>

## Import to Bitwarden
|
|
|
|
Importing data to Bitwarden **can only be done from the** [**Web Vault**](https://vault.bitwarden.com){:target="\_blank"} or [CLI]({{site.baseurl}}/article/cli/#import). Data is [encrypted]({{site.baseurl}}/article/what-encryption-is-used/) locally before being sent to the server for storage. To import your data:
|
|
|
|
1. In the Web Vault, select **Tools** from the top navigation bar.
|
|
2. Select **Import Data** from the left-hand Tools menu.
|
|
3. From the format dropdown, choose **Firefox (csv)**.
|
|
|
|
5. Select the **Choose File** button and add the file to import or **copy/paste** the contents of your file into the input box.
|
|
|
|
{% callout warning %}Import to Bitwarden can't check whether items in the file to import are duplicative of items in your Vault. This means that **importing multiple files will create duplicative** Vault items if an item is already in the Vault and in the file to import.{% endcallout %}
|
|
6. Select the **Import Data** button to complete your import.
|
|
7. After successful import, delete the import source file from your computer. This will protect you in the event your computer is compromised.
|
|
|
|
Currently, file attachments are not included in Bitwarden import operations and will need to be uploaded to your Vault manually. For more information, see [File Attachments]({{site.baseurl}}/article/attachments/#attach-a-file).
