## Introduction
|
||||||
|
Bitwarden can import your data from a large number of [applications](https://help.bitwarden.com/article/import-data/).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The current importers let you only choose the format, not HOW the data is translated to Bitwarden.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Different import results for Keepass and KeepassX
|
||||||
|
Importing from Keepass or KeepassX gives complete different results, although they use the same Keepass 2.x kbdx database:
|
||||||
|
* Keepass XML files are imported at the **Organization** level (owner of each entry) and translates the Keepass Groups into Bitwarden **Collections**.
|
||||||
|
* KeepassX CSV files are imported at the **User** level (owner of each entry) and translates the Keepass Groups into Bitwarden **Folders** with as main folder the name of the Keepass database.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It is a lot of work in Bitwarden itself to change Collections to Folders or to transfer ownership of all the entries.
|
||||||
|
So depending on what you want, choose the appropriate method!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Example
|
||||||
|
### Keepass database with name 'MyVault'
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Groups:**
|
||||||
|
* Group1
|
||||||
|
* Group1Sub1
|
||||||
|
* Group2Sub2
|
||||||
|
* Group2
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Import via Keepass:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Owner** = Organization
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Collections:**
|
||||||
|
* Group1
|
||||||
|
* Group1Sub1
|
||||||
|
* Group2Sub2
|
||||||
|
* Group2
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Import via KeepassX:
|
||||||
|
**Owner** = Logged in User
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Folders:**
|
||||||
|
* MyVault
|
||||||
|
* Group1
|
||||||
|
* Group1Sub1
|
||||||
|
* Group2Sub2
|
||||||
|
* Group2
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note: you might have to create the main folder manually, as the import shows MyVault/Group1 as a Folder. Creating the folder MyVault shows the subfolders in the MMI.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note2: you can edit the folders to remove the main folder 'MyVault', or edit the exported CSV file and remove the 'MyVault/' string in each entry before importing into Bitwarden.
