How do you import list of citations from a paper into a shared library group???

yavorsky.3
I have a word document that includes about 60 in-text cites and refereces that I have added from my personal zotero. I would like my coauthor to easily be able to have access to those cites, as she is responsible for managing all of the in-text cites and reference page for our paper.

She created a shared group, of which I joined - but how do I upload all the cites from the paper so they automatically transfer to her (without having to manually add each cite to the shared library group she has created).

In other words, what is an easy and quick way to upload the cites from the word doc into a shared group library?

Thanks.

    You can use https://rintze.zelle.me/ref-extractor/ and have them auto selected in Zotero (the button at the bottom) but note that the items you'd copy to the group wouldn't be connected to the citations in the document. There's no way to do that.

    Note, however, that your co-author would be able to re-cite items in the Word doc without access to the library. The metadata is stored in the document

    The RefExtractor link above should not include the word "and" after the slash. Remove that word and the link will work.
