Zotero Citation Key Collision using Overleaf Plugin

Hi,

I have an issue with two references which have the same authors, same year and partially identical title. Using the Overleaf plugin, both references get the same key __. Obviously, latex complains about the collision. Every once in a while, the second paper gets key'ed with a _1 suffix to prevent the collision. But this seems to be very inconsistent.

Is there a way to force Zotero (or who ever generates the keys) to generate unique keys?

    The BBT plugin can automate this, but as long as it's there, Overleaf will pick it up.
