  • Okay, great - yes, it worked for me now, too! Thanks so much for helping me isolate the issue, and for pointing me to IFTTT help. Very happy now!
  • okay, sounds good - thanks for confirming that I'm not completely crazy, haha. I'll contact them and let them know what's going on, and I'll let you know what I hear. Thanks!
  • okay - I copied the new feed into the recipe, so whenever you're ready you can add an item.
  • Hi Again. Looked to see this morning whether the recipe had triggered - it didn't, and a forced run failed again. I did notice, when looking through my Zotero, that an error report had been logged - 31583395. I don't know if this will shed…
  • All right, sounds good.
  • okay, I waited for about fifteen minutes between when I saw the new item in the feed, and waiting for IFTTT to trigger (I read that for most triggers, it's about 15 minutes between each one). No response, so I checked it: and "recipe check fail." …
  • When you add a new item, it should show up with the same feed refreshed, yes? I added a new item, synced libraries, and then refreshed that feed. The new item didn't show up. Maybe that is the issue...? _____ ok, I refreshed again... so wi…
  • So I opened Firefox because in Safari, there is no built-in RSS reader so it automatically has you pushed to the desktop reader. I tried the feed as formatted in Firefox, and it popped up in feedly. So that worked. Next, IFTTT. Pasted that same…
  • I had to create a new key because I saw that I had done some cut and pasting since the last time I had created that last feed, and in itself, the feed address did not have the"collection/...." part in it. When I went to create and save a new ke…
  • Thanks for your patience! Okay, I must have deleted that key above. I just created a new key for a collection and inserted "format=bib" and it worked. I think I may have deleted the "&" before the "key..." part. (oh and thanks re: user…
  • oh, okay - I tried the api in the browser: https://api.zotero.org/users//collections/I3B7AMJZ/items/top?format=bib&key=W3YYrz8KeM7PcuXv0YKRcefW And it came back just with "invalid key" in the window.
  • 1) Okay, when I made my library private again and copied the feed for one collection and changed it as you suggested, IFTTT said, "Not a valid feed url, missing feed title." So I switched the library to public, and it accepted it. But then the …
  • Right... so what I've been doing is saving a new item to Zotero, syncing, and then seeing if it triggers. It doesn't, so then I force a run, and it says, "Recipe check failed." It's weird - even when I make my api public so that it doesn't have…
  • No, it's fine with both - it's just not fine with my own API as referenced in the first post. I hadn't tried https://api.zotero.org/groups/4211/items/top in my RSS reader, but it didn't work in the recipe.
  • Well, I admit defeat - I have no idea what is going on, having gone through all my preferences, authorizations, and access options... I'll just figure out another workflow. But again, thanks for your efforts!
  • actually I realized what I wrote doesn't make sense (because my RSS reader still won't open the original API), but I guess I'll try it anyway.
  • I checked the original feed address on the IFTTT recipe and my RSS reader opened it fine, no problem. So then I tried formatting my feed address in that way, but IFTTT only accepted my api as it was originally generated. So I'm now thinking it must …
  • It is rather bizarre - I checked the documentation on the RSS app that I'm using and it says that it supports atom, RDF, RSS 2.0.
  • same thing... :-/
  • I'm back - I checked another group feed, and ran into the same problem ("Your address did not match any feeds" on the RSS reader, and "Recipe check failed" on IFTTT). A little baffled... but, if nothing comes to mind in terms of what might be wrong,…
  • Ok, I'll try another feed and see what happens - thanks for your help! I'll let you know if another feed works.
  • Yes, my library is populated. :) Here are the settings when I click on "Edit Key": Checked all boxes under "Personal library." Checked "Read/Write" under "Default Group Permissions." Nothing Checked under "Specific Groups."
  • Well, when I do that it automatically pushes it to my RSS desktop reader to subscribe to - but then I get a message, "Your search did not match any feeds." So I'm guessing something is wrong with the address?
