Weblibrary Citekey bbl

ingeforscht
Hello
i am new to Zotero and there is one thing i don't understand: In zotero on my desktop (mac) i have change the citekeys with bbl, they are in this format: leeEffectivenessScreencastsCognitive2008. When I sync Zotero with my weblibrary, the citekey in the weblibrary is like this: Lee_Effectiveness_2008.
Can someone help me with this issue?
Thanks in advance
Inge

    Where do you see the key in the web library?

    Keys like Lee_Effectiveness_2008 are keys generated by the Zotero bib(la)tex exporters. These exporters will skip generation and use a key you specified when you add this to the extra field:

    Citation key: leeEffectivenessScreencastsCognitive2008

    BBT is strictly local, but includes an option named "pin citation key" in the right-click menu which will write the current key into extra, and from that point on, Zotero and BBT will both use that citation key; it will show up in places like Overleaf, and I expect it would also show up in the weblibrary, I just don't know where I should find it to verify.

    Thank you very much! I don't see the citekey in the weblibrary, but in overleaf. Pin citation key works great !
