Import from Norton

Best effort

The Norton importer works in the web vault, the browser extension, the desktop and phone apps, and the CLI (octapass import norton). Norton doesn’t publish its export layout. This importer follows what users have reported, and has been tested on synthetic files, not on a real Norton export. Check a few items after importing. Everything is read on your device.

Export from Norton

1. Open your Norton Password Manager vault and go to Settings → Import/Export.
2. Choose Plain Text – CSV file (Logins & Notes only) and export.

Users have reported exports with fewer items than the vault holds, so compare the counts after importing. Norton’s CSV leaves out wallet items and addresses.

What’s imported

Files start with two lines about the export, then Item Type,User Name,Password,Site Name,Login URL,Notes,Secure,Favorite. An older layout, Username,Password,Title,URL,Notes, is read too.

Norton	Octa Pass
Site Name or Title	Title
Login URL or URL	Website
User Name or Username	Username
Password	Password
Notes	Notes
Favorite	Favourite
Rows with only a name and notes	Secure notes
Item Type, Secure	Left out

Any other column becomes a custom field. The CSV has no ids or dates, so items show the date they were imported. Importing it again finds the same logins by website and username.

Import into Octa Pass

Choose Import → Norton, drop the file, then review and import. See the import overview.

Delete the export file afterwards: it isn’t encrypted.
