Issue with Zotero Connector on Chrome

Hi,

My Zotero connectors is unable to auto download PDFs and meta-data of the research papers on IEEE. It displays following message:

An error occurred while saving this item. See Troubleshooting Translator Issues for more information.

Can I get help, please.
  • I have same problem here. It happens on the search page to save multiple items at the same time (the folder icon). When looking at a single article, zotero downloads fine. But on the search page I'm unable to import multiple items.
  • You should provide the information requested in the final step of Troubleshooting Issues with Zotero Translators page.
  • Hello

    URL https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/search/searchresult.jsp?newsearch=true&queryText=tbo

    click on the folder icon.

    Debug ID 283429688

    Translator: IEEE Xplore

    Zotero error message (in French, I'm translating here): Saving to TBO (*shared folder*). An error occurred while saving this document. See Solving Converter Problems for more for more details. (Une erreur s'est produite lors de l'enregistrement de ce document. consultez Résoudre les problèmes de convertisseur pour d'avantage de precisions.)

    I'm using the Zotero mac app with Brave browser.

    Seeing this, thanks; I'll try to look into it, not sure how quickly.
    (edit: I have a fix -- will push out later today likely)
  • OK, this is fixed now, changes will make it into your Zotero automatically within the next ~24hs
  • Hello,

    Thanks for the help. We can wait until tomorrow and will update if it works.
  • Having same issue with all of my attempts. Here is the most recent article url:

    Didn't see a debug id, however, this was showing when I went into connector in the section with the errors:
