Zotero integration with Overleaf: import a specific collection

zymbuzz · August 23, 2019

Hi! I was wondering if someone knows how to import only a specific collection from Zotero rather than the whole library?

The only way I know: auto-export a collection with BBT, and sync it to Overleaf using their Dropbox integration.

@emilianoeheyns hi, I can't seem to figure out how to do this, can you please explain it in detail? I export a library with BBT and click the update box and save it as a file on my PC and then I upload it onto Onedrive. I have Onedrive integrated with OL but I don't know what to do with it... Any help would be extremely appreciated!

Overleaf doesn't have Onedrive integration as far as I can tell. There's https://www.overleaf.com/learn/how-to/How_can_I_upload_files_from_Google_Drive? but that will not update the file when it changes; automatic update only seems supported for git or the dropbox integration.

hm, yeah, that is a bummer indeed it means that adding new references to anothe rlibrary could potentiallly alter your citation keys - desaster ;)

Not if you use BBT auto-export with their git or dropbox support.
