Bitwarden allows you to export your vault data at any time.
|
|
|
|
{% callout warning %}
|
|
Exports contain your vault data in an unencrypted format. You should not store or send the exported file over unsecure channels (such as email). Delete it immediately after you are done using it.
|
|
{% endcallout %}
|
|
|
|
{% callout info %}
|
|
The `.json` file format offers a more complete export of your data and should be used for standard backup procedures. Some non-critical information is not included with the export when using the `.csv` file format.
|
|
|
|
An exported `.json` file can be opened, read, and modified in a simple text editor like Notepad.
|
|
|
|
An exported `.csv` file can be opened, read, and modified in spreadsheet programs such as Microsoft Excel (preferred) or a simple text editor like Notepad.
|
|
|
|
At this time, exports do not include file attachment data.
|
|
{% endcallout %}
|
|
|

## From the CLI
|
|
|
|
In the CLI application, you can use the `bw export` command to export your data to a `.csv` or `.json` file in the current working directory. You can also pass the `--output` option to specify a saving location of your choice. Using the `--format` option will allow you to specify the file format as `csv` or `json`. The file format defaults to `csv`, if not specified.
