RoboForm to Mozilla Firefox converter
RoboForm and Mozilla Firefox both use CSV, but RoboForm writes 8 columns; Mozilla Firefox expects 3 in a different order — so Firefox rejects a raw RoboForm export or silently files everything into the wrong fields. Drop your export below and get back a file Firefox accepts.
Convert your RoboForm export
The conversion runs entirely in this tab using JavaScript. Your file is never sent to a server — you can confirm it by opening your browser's Network tab, or by turning off Wi-Fi before you drop the file in. Prefer not to do this in a browser tab at all? Download the converter and run it from your own disk.
What's actually different between the two formats
Not one column name matches between the two formats (Name, Url, MatchUrl… versus "url", "username", "password"…), which is why a direct import fails.
| RoboForm column | Mozilla Firefox column | What happens |
|---|---|---|
Name | — none — | Firefox has no item name field. Written into notes instead of dropped. |
Login | username | Renamed and repositioned |
Pwd | password | Renamed and repositioned |
Url | url | Renamed and repositioned |
Note | — none — | Firefox has no notes field. Written into notes instead of dropped. |
Folder | — none — | Firefox has no folder field. Written into notes instead of dropped. |
What carries over
| Field | RoboForm | Firefox | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Item name / title | Yes | No | Firefox identifies logins by URL only, so titles are dropped. |
| Username and password | Yes | Yes | Carried over |
| Website URL | Yes | Yes | Carried over |
| Notes | Yes | No | Dropped — the target has no notes field. |
| Folders / groups | Yes | No | Written into the notes field as "Folder: …" so you can re-sort later. |
| Two-factor (TOTP) secrets | Yes | No | Written into notes. Re-add them by hand, or keep them in a separate authenticator. |
| Favorites | No | No | Not in the source file |
| Custom fields | Yes | No | Flattened into notes as name: value pairs. |
| Multiple URLs per entry | No | No | Not in the source file |
| File attachments | No | No | Not in the source file |
Step 1 — Export from RoboForm
- Open the RoboForm desktop editor and unlock your data.
- Choose RoboForm menu → Options → Account & Data → Export.
- Pick CSV format and a destination folder.
- Confirm with your Master Password.
Watch out for
- The RfFieldsV2 column packs every extra form field into one delimited blob. It is RoboForm-specific and cannot be read by any other manager — the converter unpacks what it can into notes.
- Export requires the Windows or macOS desktop editor; the extension alone will not do it.
Step 2 — Convert it
Drop the file onto the converter above. It parses RoboForm's layout, maps each field onto the universal record, then writes Mozilla Firefox's exact expected columns — including the empty ones its importer requires and, where the two differ, the right shape for 2FA secrets. You'll see a preview and a list of anything Firefox can't hold before you download.
Rather not put this file in a browser tab connected to the internet? The same converter is available as a single HTML file you can download and open with your network switched off.
Step 3 — Import into Mozilla Firefox
- Go to about:logins in Firefox.
- Open the ••• menu → "Import from a File…".
- Choose the converted CSV.
Watch out for
- Firefox has no concept of a title, folder, note or TOTP secret. Entries are identified by URL alone, so an entry name has nowhere to go.
- Firefox writes its header names in quotes ("url","username",…). Some importers choke on that; the converter normalizes it.
Step 4 — Verify and clean up
- Open ten entries in Mozilla Firefox at random and check them against RoboForm.
- Your folder names were written into each entry's note. Re-sort them however Firefox organizes items.
- Sign in to one real site using Mozilla Firefox to confirm autofill works.
- Delete both CSV files and empty your trash. If your Downloads folder syncs to iCloud, OneDrive or Dropbox, confirm the deletion propagated there too.
- Only then close your RoboForm account — and change any password you suspect was exposed while the plaintext file existed.
Questions
Why won't Mozilla Firefox import my RoboForm file directly?
Not one column name matches between the two formats (Name, Url, MatchUrl… versus "url", "username", "password"…), which is why a direct import fails. The converter rewrites the file into Mozilla Firefox's exact expected layout, including the column order and any empty columns its importer requires.
Do my passwords get uploaded anywhere?
No. The conversion is JavaScript running in your own browser tab — the file is read with the FileReader API, transformed in memory, and handed back to you as a download. There is no upload, no server-side processing and no analytics attached to the file. You can verify this by disconnecting from the internet before you drop the file in: the conversion still works.
What gets lost moving from RoboForm to Mozilla Firefox?
Mozilla Firefox can't natively store: item name / title, notes, folders / groups, two-factor (totp) secrets, custom fields. Rather than drop that data, the converter writes it into the notes field where Firefox has one, so you can move it back by hand. Keep your RoboForm account active until you've confirmed everything you need made it across.
Can I keep my 2FA codes in Mozilla Firefox?
No — Mozilla Firefox has no field for TOTP secrets at all. The converter puts each secret into the entry's note so it isn't lost, but Firefox won't generate codes from it. Move those to a dedicated authenticator app before you shut down RoboForm, or pick a target that supports them.
Is the export file from RoboForm encrypted?
No. A RoboForm CSV export is plaintext — every password in it is readable by anything that can open the file, including other apps on your machine and anything that syncs your Downloads folder to the cloud. Convert it, import it, then delete both files and empty your trash. If your Downloads folder syncs to iCloud, OneDrive or Dropbox, check that the deletion propagated.
Anything unusual about RoboForm's export?
The RfFieldsV2 column packs every extra form field into one delimited blob. It is RoboForm-specific and cannot be read by any other manager — the converter unpacks what it can into notes.
