Zotero

Import papers from a Zotero library or collection into your document library — they are stored, text-extracted and indexed so you can use them as a search source during research. Configure and sync it all from this page.

Configuration

Connection
Create one at zotero.org → Settings → Security → Applications. That’s all you need — your library is detected from the key. Saving runs the connection test automatically.
How often to check Zotero for changes (only when auto-sync is on).
Advanced options — the defaults suit most libraries
On by default — untick to pause all Zotero syncing without removing your credentials.
Reads from the running Zotero desktop app — no API key needed.
Personal libraries are detected from the API key. For a group library, use “List groups” below to find its ID.
Use “List collections” below to add keys. Remember to Save — Sync uses the saved value.
Creates title/abstract-only documents with no full text — research over them is shallow. Prefer attaching the PDF in Zotero.
