Any way to update password history -- retroactively

AltmanSoftware

<div class="IPBDescription">Is there any way to add passwords to retroactively the history list?</div>Is there any way to add passwords to retroactively the history list?



An explanation, by means of example:



[list=1]

[*]21-Feb ACTION: Create a login, generate a new password RESULT: Login created; Password saved; no history since this is the first entry

[*]4-April ACTION: Update password using 1Password and login record RESULT: Password saved; Login updated; old password goes onto history list for login

[*]8-June ACTION: Update password outside of 1Password RESULT: Maybe the browser caches the password or it is written on a slip of paper, but 1PWD doesn't know about it.

[*]1-Sept ACTION: Generate new password for 1Password login RESULT: Password saved; Login updated; old password goes onto history list for login but June 8 password is not on list

[/list]





So, given this set of events, I want to retroactively add the June 8 password to the history list...



Granted that the example is a bit contrived and hopefully it doesn't happen very often, is there any way to correct the history list?



(This would also help when importing history from another password management system).



Thanks.

Hi AltmanSoftware,



That's a really good use case for the 'Password History' feature, however at the moment there isn't a way to add entry to the list without changing the password 1Password has stored for that item. What you could, if you wanted, was to copy your existing password from 1st Sept and paste this somewhere safe for a moment, then change the password in 1Password to the June 8th password, which should update the password history, then change it back to the Sept 1st password.



The only downside to this is that the dates wouldn't be accurate, they'd show today's date. I will mention this to our developers to see if there's anything we can do, we have had a few requests for features related to the password history.
