zotero://select for Z Standalone - select Z item from external application

Hi,

is there a way to get hyperlinks to specific Zotero items to work in Zotero Standalone? I basically want to be able to navigate to a specific item within Zotero from an external application. If that is not possible, can I do it with Applescript?

Thanks!
  • Okay, I found a solution myself. Here is an applescript solution:

    osascript -e 'tell app "Zotero" to activate' -e 'tell app "Zotero" to open location "zotero://select/items/0_XIM5ZAUD"'

    (XIM5ZAUD is the item key)
