Allow Attachments to be exported when using Export Data

I was shocked after exporting my vault for the first time today because i thought i was going to have a backup of my vault.

Exporting the attachments together with the JSON file can be very easy.

All logins already have their own id in the JSON file (“id”: “01234-56789”,) so you can create an Attachment directory and put all attachments in the directory with a name like

“id-orignalattachmentfilename.extension”

E.g. “01234-56789-attachment.txt”.

Zip the directory+JSON file for download and we can make backups ourself.

Next step would be importing that zip file the other way around and somehow encrypt the backup but that’s for later. I think so many users first would like to have a possibility to make a consistent backup.

@kspearrin, Kyle can you please let us know whether this is doable and on the roadmap (short term)?
Thanks a lot!
