Import podcasts

Is there a way to automatically import podcasts into zotero library?

If you mean podcast metadata, we've implemented import from Stitcher that works pretty well, e.g. on https://www.stitcher.com/show/qualitative-conversations/episode/episode-3-the-qualitative-data-repository-dr-sebastian-karcher-52527940 you can click on the Save to Zotero icon.

Zotero isn't intended as a podcast manager, so it won't attach actual episodes.

Thanks! It works but in the metadata "Item Type" it says Webpage and not Podcast and the symbol in the center Zotero pane is that for a Webpage and not a Podcast symbol - is that how it should be?

Thanks again for your support!

Oh, that was just broken. I've just updated a fix and you'll now be able to import from Stitcher properly (again). You can either just wait ~24hs or immediately update using "Update Now" in the Advanced Tab of the Zotero preferences and then either restarting your browser or using Update Translators from the Zotero Connector preferences.

Hello,
I m interested by this functionality so as to keep records of Franceculture podcast
like this one
https://www.franceculture.fr/emissions/lart-est-la-matiere/apprendre-a-voir
because it s not accessible after few months. is this possible?

I don't see why it shouldn't work. Depends on what you expect. Zotero does not store podcasts itself, only metadata about them.
