Web developer Zotero Connector save URL link as attachment

Hello, I am web developer, and we develop a website that contains a lot of articles, some books and blog posts. We wanted to enable our page to use Zotero Connector, so we added Google Highwire Press meta tags (as Zotero docs says). Everything is working just fine, but we have 2 issues.

1. We want to be able to choose (by meta tags or somehow) the ITEM TYPE, that'll be interpreted by Zotero Connector. Now, item almost always saves as Book type, sometimes, when we have defined some certain meta tags, it saves as Journal Article. But are we able to choose any type from types listed in Zotero App? Or how does it work?

2. When Zotero Connector saves an item from our website, it also saves Snapshot of our website as attachment (name-of-page.html). Would it be possible to save a link to our website as an attachment instead? How can we change behavior of saving attachments?

Thank everyone who helps in advance.
  • The item type is guessed based on the available metadata. You can see the translator code for specifics.

    Snapshot saving is controlled by the user. The Embedded Metadata translator saves snapshots if the user has snapshot saving enabled and a PDF isn't made available via citation_pdf_url.
