However, with the Numbers app on the Mac, it will export a CSV for all columns in the spreadsheet regardless if they have data. When exporting, Excel will create a CSV file up to that last column even though columns “K” thru “Z” exist. So for example, in the above spreadsheet, the last column that has data is the “J” column. With Excel, it will only export a CSV field up to the last column that has data. If you are not going to use Groups you can assign each one to the “Unassigned” group. However you cannot leave column A, B or C blank. For example here, if we didn’t want to list the “Bank” for our Visa card, we would leave the column I empty. If you have a record that doesn’t have data for a given field, just leave that column blank as a placeholder. Since the Credit Cards type has a different number of fields, it has data in columns E through J to match the fields in the type. Once again, the “A” column contains the name of the Group. We’ll add an additional record to our spreadsheet for a Visa credit card: The six fields are “Card No.”, “Expiration Date”, “Name”, “PIN”, “Bank” and “Security Code”. In mSecure, a “Credit Cards” type has a Group, Type, Description and Note field, then six more fields will follow. Since each “Type” in mSecure can have a different number of fields, it will depend on the type that the record will belong to as to what the fields mean and the number of fields.įor another example, let’s add a Credit Card record to our spreadsheet.

The next 3 columns are the fields for each web login column “E” is the URL field, column “F” is the Username field and column “G” is the password field. The fourth column (“D”) is the note for each record. Here we have 3 records Amazon, EBay and Work Intranet. The third column (“C”) is the description of each record. (Logins and Credit Cards record types have default field types that cannot be edited) You can always edit the Groups and Types after importing and any records belonging to that type will automatically be updated. If a Type doesn’t already exist, you must create the record type in mSecure 5 with all its field before importing the CSV file. The same is true for Types as you can see in the second column (“B”). If the group doesn’t already exist, you must create the group in mSecure 5 before importing the CSV file. We could do this by creating a spreadsheet like this:Īs you can see here, the first column (“A”) is the name of the Group that the record will belong to on the device. The 3 fields are “URL”, “Username” and “Password” respectively. In mSecure, the default “Logins” type has a description (every mSecure record has a description), 3 fields and a note. (For a list of the fields in all of mSecure default types, see the section “Default Types” at the end of this document.)įor example, let’s say we want to create some records that are of the default “Web Logins” type in mSecure.

The next columns are the record’s field data.

The fourth column is the “Note” for the record (this is the default).

The third column is the “Description” of the record.

The second column is the name of the mSecure “Type” that the record will belong to.

The first column is the name of the mSecure “Group” that the record will belong to.

For each row, the columns will be the parts of the record. You can also create a CSV manually in a text editor as long as you save it as plain text (most text editors support this).Įach row in a spreadsheet will represent a record in mSecure. You just create the spreadsheet and then export it as a CSV file. You typically will want to create a CSV file by exporting from a spreadsheet program.

Here's a quick rundown on how to format your information before importing it in mSecure:Ī CSV file is a very simple file format. IMPORTANT: Record types or item categories not included in mSecure by default must be created in mSecure first before importing from a CSV file.

If the other password manager allows you to export to a CSV file, the desktop versions of our software will allow you import from that file. Use this guide to learn how to format and import your information from another password manager or from a CSV file.
