Welcome to the forum, @notlevon! If you're currently using Firefox as your primary browser, unfortunately Mozilla don't offer a CSV export, so the best way to "import" your Login items into 1Password is the "organic" method: install 1Password and the browser extension, and continue using Firefox as you always have. Only now, when you enter credentials into websites, you'll get 1Password's dialogue asking you whether to say the item. After a while of normal use, you'll have most if not all of your data imported into 1Password just by doing the thing you do every day anyway. And any that remain can be specifically visited and added using 1Password's normal saving feature. At that point, when everything's within 1Password, you'll be ready to go 1Password-only in Firefox. Let us know if you have any questions. :)

Yeah. No thank you. I guess I'll stick with more user friendly solutions.

Since Firefox version 57, this has become more difficult. There is a Firefox extension, called Password Exporter, that could export your passwords as CSV, but it won't work passed version 57.
You could downgrade your Firefox temporarily, install the plug-in, and then export your passwords. Then update Firefox again when you are done.
Once you have the CSV, you can use 1Password's CSV importer.

I am considering using 1Password, but would like to be able to import from Firefox
If found this utility and wondered if anyone at 1Password had heard of it

I looked at the script briefly and didn't see any issues.
I'll look at the code more carefully and use the algorithm if possible to create a firefox converter for the converter suite, but I won't get to it for a few days.

Which platform are you on?
Have a look at the CSV import requirements to use the native 1Password CSV importer.
How to create a 1Password compatible CSV file
If that doesn't meet your needs, the converter suite has a csv converter that supports more customization. Ask if you need more help.
Oof, I see I've been really late in following through on my Oct 31 post above!

Well, it has been a long time since I said I would not get to this for "a few days". And this converter was a long slog, but so far, so good....

The 1.11 version of the converter suite now contains the Firefox converter.
