Bug report: Zotero 7 Beta crashes when inserting citation into Google Docs

Critical bug, whenever I try to insert a citation (or interact with the DB in any way) through the Zotero <> GDocs integration, Zotero 7 crashes.

Log output:

  • Could you submit a Report ID from Zotero before the crash? Does it happen in a new document?

    Sorry for not following proper reporting procedure! Report submitted now.

    I also realized that I forgot a few key details.
    I'm running Zotero 7.0.0-beta.74+2e8073ab9 (64-bit) - just updated and tested again
    On linux, opensuse TW if it matters.
    Beta was installed via the beta repo on flathub.

    This behavior persists in both GDocs (through Firefox) and LibreOffice Writer. The browser connector has also been recently updated.

    And yes, the problem occurs in both new and existing documents.

    After testing LibreOffice, I submitted another report, so here are both IDs:
    Report ID: 537961851
    Report ID #2: 1060466224

    Steps to reproduce (in both word processor and browser):
    1. Open document OR create new document
    2. Click any of the Zotero integration buttons (add citation, add note, add biblio - anything)
    3. Wait 2-4 seconds
    4. Crash
