How to Export Passwords From Dashlane

Workaround available Web app (all desktop browsers) Updated October 21, 2026

Quick answer

In the Dashlane web app go to Settings > Export data, enter your master password and choose CSV. You get a ZIP of unencrypted CSV files; use the encrypted DASH format if you just want a backup.

Most likely fix: Export to CSV for switching.

Symptoms

You want to move to another password manager or keep a backup but can't find the export option.

Why it happens

  • Export lives in the web app settings, not the mobile apps
  • Business plan admins can restrict exports

How to fix it

Try these in order — the most common fix is first.

  1. 1. Export to CSV for switching

    1. Open the Dashlane web app and go to Settings
    2. Select 'Export data' and enter your master password
    3. Choose CSV; a file named dashlane-credential-export.zip downloads
    4. Import it into Bitwarden, Proton Pass, 1Password or NordPass, then delete the file

  2. 2. Export an encrypted DASH backup

    1. In Export data choose the DASH format
    2. Create a password for the file
    3. Store it safely; only someone with that password can open it

  3. 3. Business plans: ask your admin

    1. If export is missing or partial, your admin may have restricted it
    2. Ask them to allow export of your personal items
