Exporting and Importing from BibTeX: urldate/Accessed and note/Extra

stimberlake_cra
When I export to BibTex from Zotero, the records in the .bib file include these fields:
- urldate, which is populated from Accessed
- note, which is populated from Extra

However, when I import from a .bib file, the urldate and note fields are not imported.

I have tried renaming them Accessed and Extra, and they still don't get imported into Zotero.

Is there any way to get these fields to import?

    Thank you. Are there any other ways? This resolves the extra/note issue. However, I am still having problems with urldate/accessed.

    Zotero exports the contents of accessed to urldate, but I cannot find a way to have data imported to the accessed field. I have tried:
    urldate (because that is what Zotero is exporting to)
    accessed (because that is a standard CSL variable)
    accessDate (mentioned in the BBT documentation)

    If you want help with BBT you will have to open an issue on the project page on github. My support tooling is built around github issues.
