Overleaf Zotero citation

I’ve started using the Overleaf Zotero integration and wanted to clarify the expected citation behaviour.

When I insert a citation from Zotero, it only formats correctly if I first refresh my existing references.bib file. If I don’t do this, Overleaf creates a new .bib file (e.g. references-2.bib), and the citation is then pulled from that file, which causes formatting issues (e.g. numeric citations not working as expected).

Is this intended behaviour?
And is there a way to ensure that new citations are always added to the existing references.bib (i.e. automatically merged), rather than requiring a manual refresh beforehand?
