Clipperz lets you quickly import passwords and sensitive data from:

• other password managers (Roboform, Keepass and PasswordPlus)
• popular file formats (Excel and CSV)

Just go to the “Data > Import” section of Clipperz and follow the instructions below.

• Importing from Keepass
• Importing from Roboform
• Importing from PasswordPlus
• Importing from a CSV file
• Importing from an Excel file
• Importing from JSON

Importing from Keepass

Keepass is an open source password safe with a very good reputation, but all the shortcomings of software based solutions. Luckily Keepass has good export functionalities.

1. Open Keepass and export your entries to a plain text file by selecting “File > Export to > TXT file”.
2. Locate and open the exported TXT file with a text editor and copy all the text.
3. Select Keepass in the “Data > Import” section of Clipperz, click “Next” and paste the copied text in the large text area.
4. Click “Next” and follow the instructions!

Importing from Roboform

RoboForm is a proprietary password management program. It does not have proper export functionalities (too bad!), however you can save your Passcards and Safenotes to HTML and then move them into Clipperz. The results are quite good, but will probably require some manual cleanup.

1. From the Roboform toolbar in your browser, choose “Roboform > Logins > Print List”.
2. A new window will be opened. Now press the Save button to create an HTML file containing your Passcards.
3. Locate the file you saved (e.g. passcards.htm) and double click it to open it.
4. Once open, choose “View > HTML” from your browser’s menu (or “View > Page Source” depending on the browser). Select all and copy it.
5. Select Roboform in the “Data > Import” section of Clipperz, click “Next” and paste the copied text to the large text area.
6. Click “Next” and follow the instructions!

Please note: if you want to export not just your Passcards, but also your Safenotes, you need to go through the above process a second time. To start choose “Roboform > SafeNotes > Print List” from the Roboform toolbar in your browser and proceed as above.

Importing from PasswordPlus

PasswordPlus is a password manager mostly used on mobile devices. It can export passwords to a special CSV file.

1. Export your records from PasswordPlus to the CSV format by selecting “File > Export”.
2. Locate and open the exported CSV file with a text editor and copy all the text.
3. Select PasswordPlus in the “Data > Import” section of Clipperz, click “Next” and paste the copied text to the large text area.
4. Click “Next” and follow the instructions!

Importing from a CSV file

CSV (Comma Separated Values) is a widely recognized file format that stores tabular data. Several software programs can export data to this format.

1. Open the CSV file with a text editor and copy all the text.
2. Select CSV in the “Data > Import” section of Clipperz, click “Next” and paste the copied text to the large text area.
3. Choose the special characters used within the CSV file. The most important is the “separator”. It can be a comma or a tab.
4. Click “Next” and follow the instructions!

Importing from an Excel file

Excel files are a common, but risky option, when it comes to storing passwords. Before moving your data to Clipperz make sure that the Excel file is properly structured: one record per row, consistent values in each column (e.g. title in the first columns, URLs in the second, usernames in the third, passwords in the fourth, …).

1. Open the Excel file using Microsoft Excel.
2. Select the range of cells you want to import and copy it.
3. Choose Excel in the “Data > Import” section of Clipperz, click “Next” and paste the copied cells to the large text area.
4. Click “Next” and follow the instructions!

Importing from JSON

Clipperz can export your data to a [JSON][2] format. It’s a true “lossless” export since all the information contained in your cards, including direct login configurations, are available. If you inadvertently delete a card or the information it contains, you could use your latest JSON export to restore that single card. Or you can import the whole set of your cards to a different Clipperz account.

1. Open the JSON export file with a text editor and copy all the text.
2. Choose Clipperz in the “Data > Import” section of Clipperz, click “Next” and paste the copied cells to the large text area.
3. Click “Next” and follow the instructions!
