Cloud Backup Notes

• Remote backup supports WebDAV and E3
• When Include attachments is enabled:
• the ZIP still contains only db.json and manifest.json
• actual attachment files are stored separately under attachments/
• later backups reuse existing attachments by stable blob name instead of re-uploading everything every time
• During remote restore:
• required attachment files are loaded from attachments/ on demand
• missing attachments are skipped safely
• skipped attachments do not leave broken rows in the restored database

---

Import / Export

Current supported import sources include:

• Bitwarden JSON
• Bitwarden CSV
• Bitwarden vault + attachments ZIP
• NodeWarden JSON
• Multiple browser / password-manager formats available in the web import selector

Current supported export formats include:

• Bitwarden JSON
• Bitwarden encrypted JSON
• ZIP export with attachments
• NodeWarden JSON variants
