Bitwarden allows you to export your vault data at any time.
|
|
|
|
{% warning %}
|
|
Data exports contain your unencrypted data in `.csv` format. You should not store or send the file over unsecure channels (such as email). Delete it immediately after you are done using it.
|
|
{% endwarning %}
|
|
|
|
{% note %}
|
|
The downloaded `.csv` file can be opened, read, and modified in spreadsheet programs such as Microsoft Excel or a simple text editor like Notepad.
