    I learn so much from your videos. So helpful! I've been looking into Zotero for a while and didn't think it would integrate well enough with obsidian until seeing this integration. Still on the fence but it's a top contender for the graduate work I'll be doing soon. I also appreciate seeing how your notes for books impacts your Zotero and Obsidian workflows. I'll be adopting some of those practices!

    Thank you so much for this valuable insight to your workflow!
    Do the zotero items imported in Obsidian automatically update when you change the items in Zotero?
    I am looking for a very simple workflow with Obsidian + Zotero + Word where I simply collect sources from the web and reference them in my notes in Obsidian. In the end I want to write my master thesis in Word and be able to transfer portions of my notes including the references WITHOUT having to update the links to Zotero in order to keep them synced. Is this achievable? How would you go about this?

    18:20 Are you sure it pulls everything? Because I don't think it does.
    In the PDF viewer, all the highlights and notes in the left are annotations. However, whatever is in the right pane is in a note.
    - Using the Import paper (Set up via Import Format), will only import the PDF annotations (from the left pane).
    - If you want to actually import your note from Zotero, you have to use the Import Notes.

    @JochenPrinsen Před 7 měsíci

    Hi Bryan, I really like your approach as to renaming the note by adding some static information/date to the citationkey. Could it be that this limits any future updates to that specific Zotero-item upon re-importing? Re-importing the same Zotero-item after having made additional annotations thereto, seem to result in a templater-error message (potential upon renaming; item already exists) and hence, the updated item is saved as a duplicate with solely the citationkey as title (default setting). Figuring out any work-around.

    Thanks for the great video :)
    I am currently using the citations plugin. Even though its functionality is much more limited than the Zotero Integration plugin it has one feature which I miss in the Zotero Integration plugin: I also take my additional notes about the reference in the obsidian note that I create using the plugin. If I then accidentally import the reference again, the Zotero integration plugin doesn't check whether the note with that citekey might already exist but just replaces it completely, so all my additional notes are lost. This is nice if you have new annotations to import but for my workflow, this is really suboptimal. Do you have any experience with this behavior?

    Hi Bryan,
    Glade to ear about this new plugin, which looks quite promising, and might replace the unstable BibNotes plugin I use for my zotero to obsidian workflow.
    One question I still ask myself is: is this plugin allow you to sync annotations updates from zotero ? How you manage that ?
    Also, is there a way to sync and entire folder from zotero, or only one file at the time ?

      this is not a bi-directional sync, it just going into obsidian, i did a proof of concept workflow on successive exports from zotero into obsidian so you can export more notes of the same paper into into an obisidan note for that paper but it is not a workflow ive polished as i do not use it

      Thanks for the clarification. So you rather export new notes each time you make changes to your zotero document. If I may ask, once the note is exported to obsidian, do you tend to work within it (reflexions, summary, ...), or mainly leave it as it is? Btw, thanks for your helpfull video.

    Thanks for the “Paper” template, However, for ‘report’ zotero item type, this template does not work, it cannot rename the filename properly. Why only the ‘report’ item type from zotero does not work, while other item type from zotero works?

    Hello Bryan Jenks, this video was really helpful. Thank you very much!
    I noticed during testing that your html snippet (visible at 14:49) is prone to an injection-attack (by yourself). If "{{annotation.annotatedText}}" contains something like: "1 < 2" it is going to break your code, since "

    • @BryanJenks
      @BryanJenks  Před rokem +1

      the html characters might break formatting, but its not running anything that is executing based on extracted annotation content i personally highlight in my papers. so there's not really a risk of anything, i just replace those characters when i notice them with the HTML escape code text as you saw me do in the video ✅

      @@BryanJenks Thank you for that clarification. I must have missed the part at 30:50 where you fixed it for yourself the first time. I'm sorry for that.
      However in the meantime, I have found an optimised solution for myself that I'd like to share. I just found an "escape" filter for special html characters inside of the Nunjucks documentation. This filter automates the exchange of chars pre-rendering, which is really a blessing. So my code looks like this now: "{{annotation.annotatedText | escape}}". It works like a charm; no further templates needed.

    • @BryanJenks
      @BryanJenks  Před 8 měsíci

      that is the intended function, i explain in the video that i use that to change the title of the paper after the fact so when the paper is given the initial title of the citation key, all references to that paper in other notes identify "oh that note exists now, there it is!" and the link becomes active, then the code renames the note to the correct format i want and because obsidian updates the linked references, all references to that note then update accordingly.

    Hello Bryan, I need your help regarding one use case fore zotero and obsidian. Iwant to kbow if it is applicable? Any help would be appreciated.
    Suppose I was gathering informations for writing introduction amd discussion sections of a paper. I labeled half of the highlight colors to resemble some subsections in introductions and the other half to resemble some subsections of the discussion. Then, I read for example 20 papers and snapped ideas the will be written in either introduction or discussion. Is there any way to export the annotations of all annotated papers sinultaneously in one obsidian note, so that for example, all yello highlights resembles the facts that will be written in one section of the intro, gathered from differet papers,each is referenced by its citation key. I think this will make paraphrasing , creating a flow, and finalize my writting a lot easier, especially if I was writting a review article or meta analysis.
    I hope you get my point and I am waiting for your feedback.

    • @BryanJenks

    Hi! This is still not working for me :(
    When I use mdnotes in Zotero, regardless of whether I choose "Export to Markdown", "Batch export" "create mdnotes file" or "create a standalone note", it prompts me to save in the target folder (my inbox folder "0_Inbox") but when I click save, it doesn't save anything. No mdnote appears either under the Zotero entry or in my Obsidian vault.
    This worked for me previously before upgrading to a new MacBook - but I'm at a complete loss now as to how to go forward!

    When having the references, the metadata, the annotations and the notes in Zotero, why is everything imported into Obsidian. I understand why the annotations and notes should go in there, so they can be worked as notes. But all of the metadata etc. It seems like duplication. Would a simple link to your references in Zotero. I am very new to Obsidian workflow and I am trying to implement a Zettelkasten system, so there is probably a lot I do not understand :)
