Support tiny file attachments
Sometimes a credential is a small file (<1MB). That could be certificate + private key, an SSH key or a proprietary license file. I don't want to rely on a separate solution to handle such secrets. I expect a password manager to also support that use case.

I also think this is a nice idea (can also be integrated with drive in someway). However, I currently use keepass and have certain certificates with related credentials stored in my password manager. It seems cumbersome to store such files independently from the credentials (having to come up with a specific folder structure just for this)

Since the attached files typically contain sensitive information, it would be desirable to have them secured with the proton pass PIN.
Also, they would be automatically shared when stored in a shared vault. -

Also what is preventing me from switching over from 1password. I store important PDF, license/ssh keys in there. I hope this will be supported very soon. Size should also not be limited to just 1MB, at least not if I have a premium account. Sometimes high-res pictures or PDF files can get 5MB quickly.

Big support

CRITICAL!
Proton Pass' inability to support file attachments is why I just renewed my Keeper Password Manager subscription -- I would love to eliminate that expense, since I pay (a not-insignificant amount) for a Proton Unlimited account.
I have plenty of room in Proton Drive. It seems like integration between the two would be a sensible approach.
[Example Use Cases:
I have an uploaded photo of my health insurance card stored with my health insurance provider account login credentials.
I have a PDF of my proof of auto insurance stored with my login credentials for my auto insurance provider.] -

Definitely agree. I'd like to attach small text files for keys/backup codes etc. I understand I can paste in a text field but it doesn't copy to clipboard when you select it.

mentioned this in the ProtonPass SubReddit as well - it is the ONE feature that's preventing me from making a full migration from Bitwarden. Suggest matching Bitwarden's file size limit if possible, at least all 10MB to capture screen clips and other small items.

Enpass user here.
I frequently attach photos/screenshots of backup codes, ID cards, prescriptions, etc. -

In Keepass and LastPass I can add small files to my password entries, typical keystores for HTTPS with client auth. Please add such a feature to ProtonPass.

This would be very useful indeed. As a user of Bitwarden, this is a feature I would really want before making a switch

This is critical. Key files, scans of IDs, etc.

I was very surprised coming from LastPass that attachments are not currently possible.

This is what's preventing me from switching at the moment.
I currently use KeePass and for some item it is critical to be able to attach files dorectly in the password database.
Examples are backup recovery files (e.g. for Synology or borgbackup), recovery codes for 2FA (that can be text, images or pdf; images are best for security). -

This sounds like a perfect integration with Proton Drive! Attachments should be able to be added to specific password AND note entries in Proton Pass. Adding an attachment should transparently upload the file to a location on Proton Drive, and allow the attachment to be accessible at a minimum, from the password/note entry in Proton Pass, and optionally by going to the actual stored location within Proton Drive.
Proton is uniquely positioned as one of the few (only?) companies with a password manager and secure cloud storage as their core product offering. Google, Apple, Microsoft don't count here as none of them prioritize their password managers, and certainly don't care to properly integrate them with their cloud storage.

Useful file attachments could also be screenshots or PDF.
Maybe this functionality could be integrated with Proton Drive using a predefined "special" Pass folder.
