How to change an item category (say "secure note") to another category (say, "software license")

I've miscategorized some things. Being a little OCD, I'd like to classify categories correctly. So (as the title implies), how can I change an item category (say "secure note") to another category (say, "software license")

    Hi @BillCasey,

    Thanks for writing in with your question!

    It's not currently possible to move/change an item from one category to another because the fields are different in each category (they each have their own unique sets of default fields). Hopefully we can make this easier someday. For now, you would need to copy and paste the data into a new item in the new category. But we have some tips for how to make that process easier: Quick Tip: Migrate your details between 1Password items

    Sorry I don't have a better answer for you about that! But hopefully this helps. If you have more questions about that or need anything else, please let us know. Cheers! :)

    Thanks, Drew! The limitation makes sense, now that you say it. Will proceed as per the "quick tip."
