A pass extension for importing data from most of the existing password manager.
Project description
pass import
A pass extension for importing data from most existing password managers
Description
pass import
is a password store extension allowing you to import your password database to a password store repository conveniently. It natively supports import from 62 different password managers. More manager support can easily be added.
Passwords are imported into the existing default password store, therefore the password store must have been initialized before with pass init
.
By default, pass imports entries at the root of the password store and only keeps the main data (password, login, email, URL, group). This behaviour can be changed using the provided options.
Pass import handles duplicates and is compatible with browserpass. It imports OTP secret in a way that is compatible with pass-otp.
pass-import also provides a pimport
script that allows importing passwords to other password managers. For instance, you can import passwords from Lastpass to a Keepass database. It currently supports password export from 8 managers.
The following password managers are supported:

Usage
Basic use
To import password from any supported password manager simply run:
pass import path/to/passwords
If pass-import
is not able to detect the format, you need to provide the password manager <pm>
you want to import data from:
pass import <pm> path/to/passwords
If you want to import data to a password manager other than pass
, run:
pimport <new_pm> <former_pm> path/to/passwords --out path/to/destination/pm
Help
usage: pass import [-r path] [-p path] [-k KEY] [-a] [-f] [-c] [-C] [-P] [-d] [--sep CHAR] [--del CHAR] [--cols COLS] [--filter FILTER] [--config CONFIG]
[-l] [-h] [-V] [-v | -q]
[src ...]
Import data from most of the password manager. Passwords are imported into
the existing default password store; therefore, the password store must have
been initialised before with 'pass init'.
Password managers:
src Path to the data to import. Can also be the password manager name followed by the path to the data to import. The password manager
name can be: 1password, aegis, andotp, apple-keychain, bitwarden, blur, buttercup, chrome, clipperz, csv, dashlane, encryptr,
enpass, firefox, fpm, freeotp+, gnome, gnome-auth, gopass, gorilla, kedpm, keepass, keepassx, keepassx2, keepassxc, keeper,
lastpass, myki, network-manager, nordpass, padlock, pass, passman, passpack, passpie, pwsafe, revelation, roboform, safeincloud,
saferpass, upm, zoho.
Common optional arguments:
-r path, --root path Only import the password from a specific subfolder.
-p path, --path path Import the passwords to a specific subfolder.
-k KEY, --key KEY Path to a keyfile if required by a manager.
-a, --all Also import all the extra data present.
-f, --force Overwrite existing passwords.
-c, --clean Make the paths more command line friendly.
-C, --convert Convert invalid characters present in the paths.
-P, --pwned Check imported passwords against haveibeenpwned.com.
-d, --dry-run Do not import passwords, only show what would be imported.
Extra optional arguments:
--sep CHAR Provide a characters of replacement for the path separator. Default: '-'
--del CHAR Provide an alternative CSV delimiter character. Default: ','
--cols COLS CSV expected columns to map columns to credential attributes. Only used by the csv importer.
--filter FILTER Export whole entries matching a JSONPath filter expression. Default: (none) This field can be: - a string JSONPath expression - an
absolute path to a file containing a JSONPath filter expression. List of supported filter: https://github.com/h2non/jsonpath-ng
Example: - '$.entries[*].tags[?@="Defaults"]' : Export only entries with a tag matching 'Defaults'
--config CONFIG Set a config file. Default: '.import'
Help related optional arguments:
-l, --list List the supported password managers.
-h, --help Show this help message and exit.
-V, --version Show the program version and exit.
-v, --verbose Set verbosity level, can be used more than once.
-q, --quiet Be quiet.
More information may be found in the pass-import(1) man page.
Usage for pimport
can been seen with pimport -h
or man pimport
.

Other examples:
- If the manager is not correctly detected, you can pass it at source argument:
pass import dashlane dashlane.csv
- Import NetworkManager password on default dir:
pass import networkmanager
- Import a NetworkManager INI file:
pass import nm.ini
- Import a One password 1PIF:
pass import 1password.1pif
- Import a One password CSV:
pass import 1password.csv
- Import a Passman JSON file:
pass import passman.json
- Import Lastpass file to a keepass db:
pimport keepass lastpass.csv --out keepass.kdbx
- Import a password store to a CSV file:
pimport csv ~/.password-store --out file.csv
- Export Bitwarden to SPHINX: pimport sphinx bitwarden.json -o sphinx.cfg
GPG keyring
Before importing data to pass, your password-store repository must exist and your GPG keyring must be usable. In order words you need to ensure that:
- All the public gpgids are present in the keyring.
- All the public gpgids are trusted enough.
- At least one private key is present in the keyring.
Otherwise, you will get the following error:
invalid credentials, password encryption/decryption aborted.
To set the trust on a GPG key, one can run gpg --edit-key <gpgid>
then trust
.
Security consideration
Direct import
Passwords should not be written in plain text form on the drive. Therefore, when possible, you should import it directly from the encrypted data. For instance, with an encrypted keepass database:
pass import keepass file.kdbx
Secure erasure
Otherwise, if your password manager does not support it, you should take care of securely removing the plain text password database:
pass import lastpass data.csv
shred -u data.csv
Encrypted file
Alternatively, pass-import can decrypt gpg encrypted file before importing it. For example:
pass import lastpass lastpass.csv.gpg
Mandatory Access Control (MAC)
AppArmor profiles for pass
and pass-import
are available in apparmor.d
. If your distribution support AppArmor, you can clone the apparmor.d and run: make && sudo make install pass pass-import
to only install these apparmor security profiles.
Network
pass-import only needs to establish network connection to support cloud based password manager. If you do not use these importers you can ensure pass-import is not using the network by removing the network
rules in the apparmor profile of pass-import.
Password Update
You might also want to update the passwords imported using pass-update
.
Configuration file
Some configurations can be read from a configuration file called .import
if it is present at the root of the password repository. The configuration read from this file will be overwritten by their corresponding command-line option if present.
Example of the .import
configuration file for the default password repository in ~/.password-store/.import
:
---
# Separator string
separator: '-'
# The list of string that should be replaced by other string. Only activated
# if the `clean` option is enabled.
cleans:
' ': '-'
'&': 'and'
'@': At
"'": ''
'[': ''
']': ''
# The list of protocols. To be removed from the title.

Local install
Alternatively, from git or from a stable version you can do a local install with:
cd pass-import
python3 setup.py install --user
[!IMPORTANT]
For local install you need to:
- Set
PASSWORD_STORE_ENABLE_EXTENSIONS
totrue
for the local extension to be enabled.- Set
PASSWORD_STORE_EXTENSIONS_DIR
to local the install path of pythonExample:
export PASSWORD_STORE_ENABLE_EXTENSIONS=true export PASSWORD_STORE_EXTENSIONS_DIR="$(python -m site --user-site)/usr/lib/password-store/extensions/"
The import Library
One can use pass-import as a python library. Simply import the classes of the password manager you want to import and export. Then use them in a context manager. For instance, to import password from a cvs Lastpass exported file to password-store:
from pass_import.managers.lastpass import LastpassCSV
from pass_import.managers.passwordstore import PasswordStore
with LastpassCSV('lastpass-export.csv') as importer:
importer.parse()
with PasswordStore('~/.password-store') as exporter:
exporter.data = importer.data
exporter.clean(True, True)
for entry in exporter.data:
exporter.insert(entry)
Alternatively, you can import the same Lastpass file to a Keepass database:
from pass_import.managers.keepass import Keepass
from pass_import.managers.lastpass import LastpassCSV
with LastpassCSV('lastpass-export.csv') as importer:
importer.parse()
with Keepass('keepass.kdbx') as exporter:
exporter.data = importer.data
exporter.clean(True, True)
for entry in exporter.data:
exporter.insert(entry)
