Import Collection Hierarchy (subcollection structure)
Hello, I am new to Zotero. I have an existing structure that I would like to use in Zotero but I do not want to re-create each subcollection individually.
I have been searching on the discussion forum and google for the capability to import a collection hierarchy from a csv file.
I am not very tech saavy and not familiar with scripting.
I welcome any suggestions.

It took me a few minutes to figure out how to install it, including the related discussion thread helped me figure it out. This import utility works exactly as I needed it to. I have a very large collection of files that I am using Zotero to help me catalog and re-organize.
