I am evlauating Bitwarden but cannot seem to import identites from CSV.
Would be good if there is a header CSV test file to be able to align and import them.

Hey there! Check out the Condition a Bitwarden .csv or .json Help Center article, which includes a sample file :+1:

I checked it already. It makes no mention on how to import identites… just login and notes.

I need to import identities.

Thank you,
I am bringing it in from a CSV file (just standard)

I think identities can only be imported through a json file currently.
You need to condition a json file to include idenities as shown in the example.
Read the tip box on this page Condition a Bitwarden .csv or .json | Bitwarden Help & Support

In short you need this type of minimum format for identities

{
  "items": [ 
  {
    "type": 4,
    "name": "Identity Item's Name",
    "identity": {}                     
  }
  ]
}

I had tried to condition identities into json once by converting csv to json , but it took a lot of time to get the format correct on converting.
