Switching password managers is intimidating — dozens, sometimes hundreds of accounts to re-enter. Good news: it's not necessary. Here's how to migrate to Encryvault without retyping everything.
From the LastPass vault (web interface), go to Advanced Options → Export. LastPass generates a CSV file containing your entries (site, username, password, notes).
This file is in plain text — treat it like a secret: don't leave it sitting in your downloads, and delete it as soon as the migration is complete.
In the Encryvault dashboard, under Settings → Import / Export:
1. Choose the destination vault (personal or shared, depending on your permissions). 2. Select the CSV file exported from LastPass. 3. Encryvault automatically recognizes the usual columns (`url`, `username`, `password`, `extra`/`notes`) even if their names differ slightly from one export to another. 4. A progress bar shows how the import is going, line by line, with a final report: number of entries imported, number skipped (typically rows without a usable title).
Once the import is confirmed, delete the exported file — including from your system's trash, and from any cloud sync folder (Dropbox, Google Drive…) it might have ended up in. A CSV file of passwords is the worst place to leave a plain-text trace.
Quickly browse your new vault to confirm everything is there. This is also a good time to:
Don't keep two password managers active longer than necessary — a secret duplicated across two services doubles your attack surface for no reason.
The same procedure works with CSV exports from 1Password, Bitwarden, Dashlane, and most other managers: the format is close enough that Encryvault's import automatically recognizes the columns in the vast majority of cases.
