Steven LafortuneSay you’re moving to Devolutions Password Manager, but your credentials are still scattered across another tool, your browser, a spreadsheet, or some combination of all three. Normally, that means hours of copy-pasting, or worse, retyping every single credential by hand.
Not anymore. Password Manager now ships with a built-in importer that does the heavy lifting for you.
Step 1: Connect your workspace
Before you import anything, you need a workspace, since that’s where your data actually lives.
If you’re already connected to one, you’re set. If not, you can spin up a free Cloud workspace right from the app: open the Workspaces panel, create your workspace, sign in, and you’re ready to go. No separate signup flow, no waiting around.
Step 2: Choose your source
The importer lives right in the Tools menu, on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Password Manager already speaks the native format for a handful of the tools people migrate from most often, including:
- KeePass (XML or CSV)
- 1Password (CSV, 1PUX, or 1PIF)
- Bitwarden
- Chrome
- LastPass
- Devolutions Remote Desktop Manager
If your current tool isn’t on that list, the Custom option has you covered. It reads a CSV or JSON file, so pretty much any exportable source can make the trip.
Step 3: Import your data
Once you’ve exported your current vault into a file, hand it to Password Manager and let it do the rest. There’s no manual field mapping to fumble through: pick the file, choose the destination workspace, vault, and folder, and click Import.
A progress bar runs, and then your vault populates with your entries, folder hierarchy and all. If you were organized in your old tool, you’ll stay organized here. From that point on, your credentials and websites are usable directly from Password Manager, wherever your workspace is accessible.
Why this matters
Switching password managers is one of those changes that sounds great in theory and painful in practice, mostly because of the migration step. A built-in importer that preserves your structure and handles multiple source formats removes the biggest excuse for staying put with a tool that isn’t serving you anymore.
Try it yourself
Import directly from KeePass, LastPass, 1Password, Bitwarden, Chrome, or Remote Desktop Manager, or use the Custom CSV/JSON option for anything else.
Got a format the importer doesn’t recognize yet? Let us know — we’re always expanding support based on what people actually use.
