“More security for users, organizations that use Bitwarden”
“This allows users to hide things”
Example … I can for enable/disable filters or enable/disable folders … when I click in Display filters, folders? - If true ( enable filter/enable folder) else(false - disable filters/folders)
This can be useful for premium organizations and users
We can have a list of keywords something similar to e-mail blacklist to prevent certain people from having access to things that should not have access
Complementary Feature
List of Words (word dictionary) that can not be searched by the search at Bitwarden. Example: “The user in the organization cannot look up another user’s account.” - This is already done, but could place search restrictions to prevent keywords from being searched.

I don’t have references or topics that speak of this, is new feature
Interesting idea. I can see at least one possible use case, in which people want to create an “Archived” folder of unused credentials that they don’t want to delete but also don’t want to appear in their searches.
I think these feature requests are sufficiently distinct, so they should not be merged. Instead, feel free to add a post to each thread directing users to your idea here - then people can add a vote if they like, and the devs can also trace back to hear for inspiration. Cheers!
1 What will this feature do differently?
This feature brings together the following features:
Limit Search History at Bitwarden case 1
Add option to hide passwords from general search case 2
Archive accounts case 3
2 - But… what is the “Options to limit password viewing” feature?
You can have more security with search limiting, basically you hide filters, tags and folders by clicking ‘hide filters, tags and folders’ button - "low security level"
You can archive your passwords in the ‘archive’ folder, this prevents the password from being searched - "medium security level"
If you want more security, you can create a list of allowed and disallowed keywords to limit which passwords will be searched and which passwords will not be searched… - "high security level"
3 - What benefits will this feature bring?
It gathers all the necessary resources to increase the security of organizations, people, users.
“More security for users, organizations that use Bitwarden”
Case 2.1: You can only search these words as [‘account1’ or ‘account2’ or ‘account3’], the rest are ignorant of the search field - passwords will not be shown
Case 2.2 - Add option to hide passwords from general search - blacklist
Case 2.2: You can’t search for things like these words as [ ‘account1’ or ‘account2’ or ‘account3’], these words preclude the search. That is, these accounts with these words are hidden from the search field.
These features have not been implemented to the best of my knowledge, here is just a rough draft, concept and initial idea
My goal is to help the Bitwarden community
Initial considerations in case 2:
If you have a keyword dictionary it is possible to hide your passwords from the search.
For example, in computer networks if you do not want to allow certain ips to access a page you have a list called blacklist, this list is a plain text list that provides a list of ips or a range of ips that will not access the website
This blacklist is conceptually called the list of disallowed keywords…
So… “Whitelist” is the list of allowed keywords and disallowed keywords is “blacklist”
Search engines use a file called robots.txt that tells the browser or google crawler whether to search for certain words or not.
Like the idea and example you made, but I wouldn’t get my hopes up for it to get implemented. It’s been 3 years since the first time this was asked as a feature.
