To use Zotero integrated with Microsoft Word on a Mount Sinai-managed Windows workstation, you need additional permissions to your user access profile in SailPoint. These modify your workstation and install the Mount Sinai-packaged version of Zotero which offers the Zotero program and the Word integration. Note: You will not be able to install the Web Connector to grab web content.
Follow the steps below to request and enable Zotero on a Mount Sinai-managed Windows workstation.

Step 3: Open Microsoft Word and check for the Zotero tab in the ribbon
After you have launched Zotero, open your document in Microsoft Word. Zotero should appear in the Word ribbon menu.
If the Zotero tab is not displayed, try restarting Word again. I can take 2-3 restarts for the template to launch.
Note: If you see a yellow warning bar stating that you need to enable macros, click to enable macros button and then Zotero tab should appear in the ribbon. If you do not see the Zotero tab, restart the application.
