Create your CSV file for import to the ESET Password Manager

The CSV file must have a specific and exact structure. Otherwise, the ESET Password Manager cannot correctly read the information. To create a CSV structure for Accounts, Identities, Notes and Credit cards, you must have 30 columns. These are all required for different data inputs. It does not matter what order they are in, although we recommend the sequence shown below:

The CSV file header

The column specifications listed below are also written in the same sequence but divided into the corresponding credential type they belong to. With this structure, select ESET Password Manager as a source of the import file at the import screen.

The first two columns are related to all the credential types:

•modelType—Account, Identity, Note or CreditCard.

•modelVersion—For the Account category, type 3. For Identity, Credit card and Note, type 1.
