2 years agoWay to find duplicates and prefer a certain vaults entry if found?
Hello!
So I was using 1P for ages, and decided to try Apple's Keychain, which was fine for a while. But I missed 1P ;) and now after importing my Keychain back into 1P I'm left with what's essenti...

2 years agoHello @bschneider! 👋
Welcome back to 1Password! 1Password doesn't currently have a feature to automatically go through a list of items and detect or merge duplicate/similar items, this will need to be done manually. Since your items are in two different vaults I would recommend the following process:
- Treat the vault that contains the items that you imported from Keychain as the "source of truth" since it sounds like that vault will have the most updated and correct items.
- Go through all of the items in the old vault one-by-one comparing them to the equivalent item in the new vault. Edit and update the item in the imported vault so that it contains the latest information and everything that you need to keep.
- Once you're sure that the item in the imported vault is complete and accurate, delete the item in the old vault.
I know that this isn't the most elegant process but hopefully you only have to do it once and then you'll have a complete and correct set of your items going forward.
Let me know if you have any questions. 🙂
