Sync changes in collection #581

Closed marcelowoo closed 1 week ago

marcelowoo commented 1 month ago

Hi,

Thanks a lot for this amazing add-on.

Problem Once a paper (or reference) in Zotero has been synced to Notion, if I change the paper's collection (folder) in Zotero, the change is not updated in the "Collections" field in Notion.

Ideal solution I'd like the changes in the paper's collection in Zotero to be updated in Notion.

Alternatives I've considered I couldn't find any convenient workaround.

Thanks a lot!

To add: I did try to right-click and select "Sync to Notion", but the "Collection" field still doesn't update.

Hi @marcelowoo, thanks for reporting this. This feature should be supported (I just tested it myself), so I'm curious why it's not working for you.

Does the "Collections" property show the first collection an item is added to, or is it not showing any collections at all?

Would you mind sending a screenshot of the error console showing the data that's being synced for one of your items in a collection? I'm specifically hoping to see the values being synced for the Collections property.

Below is a video showing how to find the Collections property in the error console.

Thanks!

Hi...

I didn't know it was possible to sync the collection automatically until I saw this.

I followed the video instructions, but it seems it doesn't show the Collections property:

I have the latest version of Zotero and Notero:

Hi @Pedrodas1, have you added a multi-select property to your Notion database named Collections? It will need to have that exact type and name in order for Notero to sync it.

@marcelowoo @Pedrodas1, are you still having issues with this?

Pedrodas1 commented 1 week ago

Hi,

Apologies for the confusion earlier. You were correct. It turns out the issue was due to a missing 's' in "Collections" in the database name.

I'm glad you got it working, @Pedrodas1!

I'm going to close this issue, but @marcelowoo let me know if you're still having trouble.
