Hello Bitwarden team,
I’d like to propose adding a new item type: structured key-value collections for storing grouped secrets, similar to formats like .env, TOML, or INI.
These formats are widely used to store configuration values in plaintext files as simple key-value pairs. Currently, Bitwarden can approximate this via secure notes or custom fields, but these approaches are limited for real-world development and DevOps use cases.
Native support for key-value collections would:
- Provide a clean and structured way to store multiple related secrets in one item
- Improve usability for developers working with environment/config values
- Enable better API/CLI automation
- Allow optional import/export of simple
.env-style or INI-style text blocks
Supporting this would make Bitwarden a more attractive option compared to dedicated secrets managers (like Doppler, Vault, or 1Password Secrets Automation), and help bring more developers into the Bitwarden ecosystem.
Thanks for considering this feature!
