I’m starting to use Bitwarden\_rs, and so far it works fine.

I configured an organization to be able to share passwords with my family, I’m able to share an account with the organization, but I have not found a way to do the opposite (ie, to unshare an account).  
Did I miss something ?

Is this a new feature to be requested ?

Thanks

I asked that question once (cannot find it, though) and the response was that a “shared” entry is not really “shared”, but rather “given to” (the organization).

This means that there is no way to take it back.

I learned to see each organization as yet one (special) user.

Thanks, so the only way is to remove the account, and recreate it in my personal vault.

I like the idea of seeing and organization as a special user we give accounts.

It’s definitely a feature request, but upstream Bitwarden needs to first decide on a design and implement it. You can vote for it here:

> **[Add unshare option](https://community.bitwarden.com/t/add-unshare-option/604)**
>
> As originally requested by someone else here… https://github.com/bitwarden/core/issues/158 I’m looking to unshare a login that was shared with an organization. Simply unchecking the collection it belongs to doesn’t remove it from the organization,...

AFAIK the only current workaround is recreate each entry, or to export your organization vault (potentially removing entries you don’t want to “unshare”) and import it into your personal vault.
