Learn how to import papers from Zotero into Elicit here. Zotero import currently has the following limitations:

1. We import all PDF attachments. So, the number of PDFs imported into Elicit may not equal the number of papers in the collection, since some papers may not have PDFs attached (or may have multiple)

2. It’s a one-way import, rather than a sync:

   1. If you add something into a Zotero collection, it won’t be automatically added to your Elicit library – you’ll need to Re-import the collection to see the new item:

3. We can’t import from shared Zotero collections
