Note: I merged two Feature Requests (FRs) here now, essentially requesting the same thing: make vault items “hideable”. – As far as I read the posts, for some users, there may be a great overlap to this FR: Archive old accounts – others wrote, as I understand it, they want something different than an “archiving function”. That’s why I let this FR stand as it is for now.
I also changed the title to sum up what is requested (before, the title was “Add ‘Hide’ Menu Option for Items” – and the title of the other FR was “Add option to hide passwords from general search”).
I like to keep a history of all my previous credit cards in my vault. Would it be possible to hide certain credit cards from the browser extension so it doesn’t come up as part of auto-fill? This would be great to automatically do for expired cards, but would also be nice as a manual toggle.
While on the topic of credit cards, can the PIN be a standard field vs the custom one it is now?
I would really like to see this feature, not just for credit cards but for all items (including collections). It’s something I really miss from 1Password.
I have a folder named Archive where I keep older credentials that I don’t think I’ll need again, but not ready to discard them yet. Would be nice to not only to mark any item to be hidden, but to mark a folder that way as well.
One step further would be a checkbox beside the search input to Include archived/hidden items in your search, but have them not searchable be default to keep the results trimmed.
@gjain@Jay_Larson@abl1822@dmtml@vwvw@FRG-Tech I merged your posts with this feature request to the same topic. (the title of “your” feature request was “Hide credit card in browser extension”)
I also would like to mention here as well, that your posts also have some overlap with this other feature request: Archive old accounts
Until a function like this becomes available, your best bet would be to use two separate Bitwarden accounts for work and personal data. The Terms of Service only permit each person to have at most one free account, so you could either use one Premium and one free account, or two Premium accounts, according to your needs. Bitwarden’s account switching feature makes it easy to switch back and forth between the two accounts.
Hey!, thanks for the suggestion, but that’s honestly not a great solution after I went ahead and explored it due to one key feature: MFA (OTP) is limited to premium accounts
This solution boils down to:
Stop using MFA on Work OR Personal accounts
OR
Pay for 2 times the cost of the product because I want to use MFA.
OR
Use a free account and move all my MFA to some 3rd party.
Not trying to hate on Bitwarden here, just saying MAN I did not realize how moving would make me miss such an important feature.
We could begin splitting hairs on pricing of things as well, but that defeats the purpose of the move if I end up doubling my license count just to use OTP codes unfortunately
If you don’t mind having to use a mobile device to get your TOTP codes, an alternative option might be to use Bitwarden’s standalone Authenticator app, which is free. Currently, this app does not sync across devices, but sync functionality for the Authenticator app is currently on Bitwarden’s development roadmap.
Not trying to minimize the frustration that you’re expressing, but just wanted to offer some potential work-arounds until some solution to your problem is developed.
A somewhat workable approach I found was to use one of my organization collections for work accounts since my premium gives me access to organizations
Then I put all my work stuff in there and shared it with the free account.
Helps keep things synced, but I still cant use OTP I have to refer to a 3rd device for an OTP code which is annoying but idk doing what I can for now I guess.
My big worry is that I did want to also use secrets for some automation development and I hope my work account does not consume that now. That would just be the cherry on top for me for this whole thing… We’ll see
You should be able to create a free organization also from a free account.
Depending on the frequency of switching between work & personal use, and your tolerance for making configuration changes via the Web Vault, you could just use your Premium account for everything (thereby allowing you to use the integrated TOTP authenticator for both personal and work accounts), and use the Web Vault Admin Console to remove/restore access to the work collection as needed; you could have a second collection for your personal items and do the same with the personal collection. A less cumbersome approach would be to use the vault filters to switch back and forth between the personal and work collections, but the trade-off there would be that the filters settings persist for at most 2 minutes when you close and re-open the browser extension.
It shouldn’t. You can set up a free organization from both the premium account and the free account. For either one, if you log in to the Web Vault and go to Admin Console > Billing > Subscription, you will see the following offer for a free Secrets Manager subscription:
Secrets Manager for Free 2-person Organizations
For engineering and DevOps teams to manage secrets throughout the software development lifecycle.
I use Bitwarden at work and sometimes I have to share my screen in a video chat software to colleagues. In these cases I don’t want some of my logins to show up because of privacy reasons.
Please add a option to make a login private or let us create a private folder in which entries wont show up in the “show all” list.
Hello, is there an update regarding ‘flexible collections’ that was posted in 2022? Similar to others with suggestions about archive-like entries, I would like to hide a folder I call “archive” (pwds I no longer use, but occasionally need) so that these entries don’t display when I select the option to list all Logins, for example. A way to hide an archive folder or suppress it by filtering out its entries would be quite handy. Is nesting my archive folder inside another folder one way of suppressing entries of the archive folder when searching? I’ll look forward to your thoughts (and instructions for how to nest one folder inside another folder). Thank you.
