Shared vault
As a reminder, you have access to two types of vault:
- Your personal vault, to which only you have access.
- Shared vaults, enabling secrets to be shared between different people and teams.
On this page, we'll focus on your share vaults.
For simplicity's sake, the screenshots are taken from the web client, but most of the actions described can be performed on mobile or plugin clients.
For more information on personal vault and plug-ins, please consult the following documentations:

We'll only deal with its specific features here.
But before, we need to talk about collections. They will have their own dedicated chapter, but it's important to understand what they are when we talk about items.
A collection is the equivalent of a folder. But as well as organizing items, it also carries the notion of user rights.
There are 2 default collections:
- Default collection, which is present by default but managed with rights, like any other collection
- Unassigned, which is a collection that cannot be selected in filters and in which all shared vault members have write access. This is where items that don't have a dedicated collection go.
That said, here's a list of the specifics of managing items in a shared vault.
- When an item exist in a personal vault, it can be moved to a shared vault through Assign to collection (click the 3 dots at the end of the item line).
The item can't be assigned to the Unassigned collection - When an item exist in a personal vault, it can be cloned to a shared vault through OWNERSHIP > Who owns this item?
The Default collection is assigned by default, but if you uncheck it, the item will switch to Unassigned mode - A new item can be created on the shared vault
From your personal vault, you have to change OWNERSHIP > Who owns this item?
From your shared vault, the Default collection is assigned by default
If no collection are selected, the item will switch to Unassigned mode
