Merging Duplicate Login/PW imports

patsawesome

Hello,

I am working on merging info for duplicative logins on my app. I have been to watchtower and it only showed 4 duplicates, when in fact there are dozens more.
Any assistance here would be wonderful.

Thank you.

I'm sorry we missed your message. It appears to have slipped between the cracks, so to speak.

If Watchtower is not flagging the items as duplicates then they are likely not true duplicates. Often things like creation dates and or meta data can be different. In such situations manually removing the duplicates is often the best path forward.

Any progress on a merger tool or intelligent duplicate detection?

Here’s a simple example without hidden metadata.

For instance, I have a dozen entries for Domino’s Pizza with titles and URLs in the format:

https://www01.order.dominos.com
https://www02.order.dominos.com
https://www07.order.dominos.com
and so on…

These were created before 1PW recognized them as the same site. There are many similar instances, and manually cleaning them is tedious. How about a way to automatically detect/resolve/merge, or delete these?

I’ve requested this for years, including for items with different but inconsequential metadata like creation/modification dates or those imported from a vault before 1PW implemented duplicate detection. The most common objection is fear of inadvertent deletion of important data. The example above shouldn’t raise concern about deleting important data. And if anyone is still concerned about accidentally deleting something important, move it to the archive, rather than deleting it!

I suppose the answer is “no.”
