Hi,
I am using the bitwarden system with a docker on my synology nas
recently i had a problem on my nas and consequently the docker wasn’t accessible
to solive this issue in the future, I’ve consequently exported my database in a json encrypted format.
That i could update regularly if needed
My question is simple
How could i open this json file and use it under windows (out of chrome or any browser).
is there a way to open it locally?
thanks in advance
regards
The short answer is - you can’t. The encrypted data are tied to your encryption key for your account on the server, which you don’t have direct access to.
Having said that, if you installed your software to a Synology NAS then you aren’t running Bitwarden software. Rather, it is software coded by a developer that has no association with the Bitwarden project and has cleverly made it look just like you were running an actual instance of Bitwarden - essentially a Bitwarden imposter. So who knows - maybe it is possible on the software you have installed to your NAS?
Thanks for your answer.
Yes you are right.
What i use on my nas
© 2022, Bitwarden Inc. (Powered by Vaultwarden)
Version 2.25.1
so more vaultwarden
but the exported file is still named bitwarden_encrypted_export_2022
so meaning it could be opened under a local bitwarden system under windows i guess.
It’s more for safety reason in case my nas is down of any reason
besides i can export with no encryption also
If you have confirmed you are not using Bitwarden’s software, then this is probably the wrong community to approach for answers. I suggest you reach out to any support channels for the developer of the imposter software you installed, if they exist.
As such, I am going to close this thread now, but feel free to DM me if you have questions about that.
