migrating from 1password to Bitwarden using a 1pux file?

Hello,
I sincerely apologize if I've put this topic in the wrong place.
I'm in the process of trying to migrate from 1password to Bitwarden.
I can export a 1pux file from 1password containing all my data or a CSV, which only exports my passwords.
I have over 600 items.
When I try importing the 1pux file, the format gets severely messed up & information ends up in the wrong fields.
I want to export a 1pux, because I also have WIFI credentials stored in 1password that need to migrate as well.
For those who have went through this process successfully, how did you do it?
Which format did you use?
How many items did you have?
I should also add that I have 2 vaults. 1 for personal stuff & the other is for work.
I've already created respective folders, with the same names in Bitwarden & am slowly trying to get my items organized there.
Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

I migrated over 500 items and the process went relatively well. That said, there are a lot more content types in 1Password than there are in Bitwarden and so where a matched content type doesn't exist, your data shows up as a note in Bitwarden. For example, passwords migrate to passwords, credit cards migrate to cards, but license codes, software licenses, WIFI passwords (assuming they're added as WIFI passwords and not logins) all migrate as notes. I didn't use folders in 1Password, but assume those would migrate over successfully, I generally just search for whatever I"m looking for rather than browse the folder structure. Also, if you have 2FA codes set up in 1Password, those will migrate assuming you have upgraded Bitwarden, the free version doesn't support displaying2FA codes.

I hope this is helpful, but feel free to ask any other questions. In hind-sight, one thing that maybe I should have considered doing is making folders for the content types I knew wouldn't match, then it would have been easier to sort all the notes into the correct folders.
