Password Safe allows you to import password information from other formats. These files may be generated by other applications, exported from a spreadsheet, or even written by hand using Notepad or a similar text editor.
The formats that Password Safe supports are:
In addition, to 'import' a subset of entries from another Password Safe database, just start Password Safe (assuming you permit multiple instances via Manage->Options->System tab) and open the other database, whilst having your normal database open in another instance. Then you can simply drag and drop any entries or groups to your open database from this 'import' database.
Text files used to import password entries consist of one or more password entries. Each field within an entry is separated by a field separator and each entry may consist of one or more lines. Details on the expected format of the imported text file may be found in the "Plain Text Export & Import Format" section.
The field separator used in the text file being imported and a default group name to import the new entries into can be configured before processing the file.
XML (eXtensible Markup Language) is a popular format for transferring data between applications. Password Safe can import XML files that were generated according to the schema defined in the file pwsafe.xsd, which is provided as part of the distribution.
