I have chosen what I feel are appropriate types for some manual entries in paperpile, however the upon export I’m not happy with the type that paperpile chose to export as.
I can’t seem to find a place to override this, and I have no idea how each citation type will export in terms of both types and fields.
Is there a master document somewhere we can look at to understand how the bibtex/biblatex exports work?
Hey @Gabriel_Devenyi, I got this from the team. Hope it helps!

Thanks for the details.
Something I noticed is between BibTex and BibLaTeX exports, the mapping of fields from Paperpile to the bib file also changed (particularly in the @MISC entry). Do you have any details on how that mapping works in both versions?
@Gabriel_Devenyi official BibLaTeX documentation recommends using the date field instead of year.
The other difference between BibTeX and BibLaTeX is that BibLaTeX has more fields (i.e., in the LaTeX and BibTeX window, see the difference in the included fields for export dropdown menu)
