5 years agoCan't move/copy non-password items to a different vault in Android app
Hi,
I have an API key stored in 1Password that I wanted to move from one vault to another, using the 1Password Android app (version 7.7.7). But when I tried to, I was unable to do so, and saw the following error message instead:
Can't move item to Primary vault
Document and custom items can't be moved or copied to the Primary vault
To be clear, I tried to move it into a non-primary vault, despite what the message says.
I had to use 1Password Web to do the same thing, which worked fine. But why can't I do it through the app?
1Password Version: 7.7.7
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: Android 11

Thank you! I confirm that I have managed to locate your message in our system, and I see that my colleague has already forwarded this to the developers :+1:

@ag_ana thanks for the tip! I couldn't see it on my phone because Gmail groups conversations and hides the subject if it's similar enough and I couldn't find a way to see it on the Gmail Android app, but I did on my laptop. It's [#CEN-11169-144] if it's still needed

Thank you for the update @smtchahal!
(Also, for future reference, you should see the ticket number at the beginning of the Subject field in your email conversation ;) )

Hi @ag_ana
I did email the report and while I did not receive a ticket number (maybe I missed a step?), I did receive confirmation that it's a bug in the Android app and they'll forward information to the developers to fix. Thanks!

Hi @ag_ana, I just tried that and yes, I was able to reproduce the issue again.

Hi @smtchahal!
Are you able to reproduce this again if you create a new API key item, and try to move it again to the same vault?
