Zotero best practices

Hey Guys,

I have created a simple Zotero translator that creates a markdown link to your Zotero Item when quick copying (drag and dropping) the item into obsidian.

Demo

How to Install

  1. Download Markdown.Item.URI.js from Github
  2. Place file inside the “translators” directory in your Zotero data folder
  3. Restart Zotero
  4. In the Zotero Preferences go to the “Export” and set the Default Output Format to “Markdown Item URI” (this will be towards the bottom of the list)
    grafik

You can now take advantage of Zotero’s quick copy functionality and drag&drop links from the item in your client right into Obsidian.
