1Password TeamHi @ATabarrok, thanks for reaching out! The option to export is only available in the 1Password desktop apps, and I'll include some more detailed steps below that should help:
- Press the Windows key on your keyboard, and click 1Password near the top of the list.
- If you don't see 1Password listed here, you don't have the app installed. Download and install it from the following link, then try again: Download 1Password 8 for Windows
- Enter your usual credentials to unlock if prompted.
- In the top left corner of the app window, next to the word 1Password, click â‹® > Export, and choose the account you want to export.
- Enter your account password.
- Choose an export format (1PUX or CSV) then click Export Data.
- Choose a location for your export file, and click Open.
It's important to note that exported data files are not encrypted, they are stored in plain text. Anyone with access to your exported data files will be able to read your passwords. Do not email exported data files or store them online, and delete them as soon as you're done with them.
I hope this helps, but if you have any further questions, let me know!
