Migrate from Lastpass to self hosted Bitwarden export issues with solution (lemmy.world)

Hi all

Since some days ago I've being experimenting running vaultwarden locally, and with pleasure I'm ready to move all my password from Lastpass (around 400).

However, since I'm a business user, Lastpass introduce quite some difficulties in order to export your passwords. The internet is full of tricks you can try; if they work for you, congratulations, if not, you can try what I will be suggesting in the next following lines. This feels good, since a lot of this recommendations are suggested in reddit, neither of them worked for me so the new-good-one that made the trick for me will be here in lemmy and not in reddit 🤟

To my knowledge the first suggestion (that didn't work) for me, is to export using the export option of the vault. This is disabled for business users. The second suggestion is to use the browser extension, via de Account -> Fix a problem yourself option (great name btw Lastpass, jesus...).

So here comes what worked for me: In my current LastPass plan I can link a personal account to my vault, so I created a shared folder in my business account, moved all my passwords, and from my personal account I was able to export them from the vault. Now I have a CSV that can be imported in my selfhosted Bitwarden and get rid of LastPass at once.

Hope this can help anybody else!

Lastpass and Authy are the worse offenders in this space IMO. Make it extremely difficult to impossible to migrate off their platform. Of course that's not something that anyone normally would think about as a new user.

WTF. Why? This would make me want to switch even more and I would make sure to never be their customer again.

For real, it’s hard enough to maintain tech without being thrown into a walled garden with no data export, let alone as a “business” class user.

Your data should always be yours to do what you wish with.

It does seem to be a strange choice to disable export for business accounts.

I'm just speculating, but perhaps OPs employer pays for the service and has disabled exporting for employees in an ineffective attempt to avoid exfiltration of internal business passwords.
