What I’m trying to do

Create a roll-up of all my literature notes

Things I have tried

I am using this template:

table
title as Title, 
FirstAuthor as "First Author", 
Year as Year,
itemType as Item, 
Citekey as Citekey, 
Contribution as Contribution
FROM "[insert Literature Notes folder here]"

From this medium article: An Academic Workflow: Zotero & Obsidian | by Alexandra Phelan | Medium

However it always ends up without the data from the uploaded articles:

And the articles have the data in them:

What am I doing wrong :slight_smile:

You need to use double colons :: rather than single colons to separate your variable names from their values.

Year:: 2022

Have a look at the docs here:
