Bulk create/import subcollection tree

seeingtheforest

I would like to create about 90 collections and subcollections, but would rather not type it all in manually. I have it all in a text file with tab indents as well as actual Windows Folders/Subfolders. Is there any easy way to import this structure into Collections/Subcollections?

You could script it with the Run JavaScript window, but beyond that, no.

I solved it with the Zotero Folder Import add-on (https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-folder-import) and the copy utility here (https://vovsoft.com/software/copy-files-into-multiple-folders/) to copy a text file to every subfolder, allowing the collection/folder structure to be created, then just deleted the dummy text files

Smart.
