Dear support team,

I am setting up an automation via Make. Here is the situation: I usually receive bibliographic articles by email. Once I receive the email, I would like to forward it to a team and integrate it directly into Zotero via Make and a Mailbook. Here is the scenario I am planning.

I am using a Mailhook at the beginning of the scenario, followed by an "Upload a File" module for Google Drive, then a "Download a File" module for Google Drive, and finally 2 "Call HTTP" modules, but without success. Indeed, this process adds the article but does not extract the article's data, so it remains incomplete.

Could you please guide me on the correct process to upload the article in PDF directly into Zotero? We can plan a remote meeting if you are available.

Thank you in advance for your help.

PDF metadata retrieval isn't currently available in the web library, and
there's no way to trigger it via the web API.

Thanks for your response.
Is it possible to send the link of the référence with a call HTTP first and after the the pdf with another call HTTP ?
