Pandoc Plugin Obsidian, can’t find bibliography file

[jackrgilmore]

Does anyone know how to work with this?

What I’m trying to do

Export to various formats using Pandoc to change my citekeys into citations and add a bibliography to my documents. Following advice from this tutorial and this tutorial

I keep getting an error message that says the file or directory doesn’t exist in the resource path

My Extra Pandoc Arguments:

--resource-path="/Users/jgilmore/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~md~obsidian/Documents/Second-Brain/"
--bibliography="/Users/jgilmore/Documents/Second-Brain/Atlas/Utilities/Zotero/Zotero.bib"
--number-sections 
--citeproc
-M reference-section-title=References
-o output.docx

Things I have tried

• troubleshooting the hell out of it with ChatGPT
• moving my betterbibtex file and betterbibtex CSL json file into my vault and directing it there
• changing various things in the arguments for over 3 hours straight

At this point, I'm very frustrated. I can see the potential this tool has for academic writing so I really want to get it to work.

Note: The plugins I'm using are Citations, Pandoc Reference List, and Pandoc Plugin
