Syncing Issue - Only Partial Library Showing in Overleaf and Web Version
Hello,
I'm experiencing a problem with syncing my Zotero library to Overleaf. My Zotero desktop library contains over 1000 articles, but when I link it to Overleaf, only 64 articles are showing up. Additionally, when I check my library on the Zotero web version, there are far fewer articles than what is available on my desktop.
I believe this could be related to a sync error I received on Zotero desktop, which indicated that some tags were too long to sync (exceeding 256 characters). However, with the number of articles in my library, manually fixing each tag would be impractical. I'm also unsure if this is the real problem or not?
Could you please advise on resolving this issue so that my entire library syncs properly across Zotero desktop, web, and Overleaf?
Thank you for your help!

If you're getting a sync error in the desktop, that's of course the problem. We'd want to see a Debug ID for a sync attempt that fails to say more.
If there's a tag that's too long, Zotero offers a wizard to help you deal with it quickly. But this is a data problem, and if many items are affected, it means you imported from somewhere where the data was messed up. If you provide details, including where the items are from, we might be able to say more.
