Description

I use Zotero to handle my references.

I have the following BibTex entry:

@misc{tiobeTIOBEIndex2023,
  title = {{{TIOBE Index}}},
  author = {TIOBE},
  year = {2023},
  journal = {TIOBE Index},
  urldate = {2023-12-02},
  howpublished = {https://www.tiobe.com/tiobe-index/},
  note = {Acesso: 2/11/2023}
}

When I use the Visual Editor to insert this reference, my references.bib is updated to:

@misc{tiobein2023,
	title = {TIOBE Index},
	year = {2023},
	date = {2023},
	url = {https://www.tiobe.com/tiobe-index/}
}

Many fields are missing. Is this a bug or I have to change any settings?

I am aware that the fields may not be imported the same way depending on BibTex or BibLatex formats, but missing the author is really a concern.
