You can export your personal Vault data from any client application, or export an Organization Vault from the Web Vault or CLI. Exports can be downloaded as plaintext `.json` or `.csv` files, or as a `.json` [encrypted export]({% link _articles/importing/encrypted-export.md %}).
We recommend using `.json` for a more complete export, as `.csv` files won't currently export Cards or Identities. For complete information on the format of Bitwarden `.csv` and `.json` files, see [Condition a Bitwarden .csv or .json]({% link _articles/importing/condition-bitwarden-import.md %}).
Vault Exports **will not include** [file attachments]({% link _articles/features/attachments.md %}) or Items in the Trash.
{% callout warning %}
Unless you're using an [Encrypted Export]({% link _articles/importing/encrypted-export.md %}), do not store or send the exported file over insecure channels, like email, and delete the file immediately after use.
