Upgrade StorageImport a single reference (in clipboard) to library
Hi,
I'm wondering if there's a way to import an item into the library based on a reference contained on the clipboard.
For instance, I want to be able to copy the following text (in APA citation format) to my clipboard, and then let zotero read my clipboard to create the appropriate item.

From searching online, everything I've found requires converting information into a Bibtex file. But do I really have to use cb2Bib to manually add fields to a citation? If so, it seems the effort undermines the whole point...

Solutions like cb2Bib etc. exist as workarounds, but they're not particularly good and, because it takes three steps or so, not practical for single cites. You're faster searching for this on google scholar or so. Also, correct APA citations should include a DOI, which you can plug into the add by identifier/magic wand pop-up.
