1. Upload your study list
From Studies, choose Upload and select a CSV or JSON export from Covidence, EndNote, Zotero, or a custom spreadsheet. We need at minimum a title column and ideally a doi column. Other useful columns: authors, year, pmcid, nct.
2. Add your review rules
Open Review rules and paste your inclusion and exclusion criteria. Optional keyword hints help the PDF text check in step 4 of your protocol — they never auto-include or auto-exclude studies.
3. Download PDFs
Back in Studies, select the rows with DOIs and click Download PDFs. The live log shows which resolver succeeded per row. Free accounts have 5 successful downloads included; paywalled or errored lookups don't burn a slot.
4. Export to EndNote
Use Export XML for EndNote and Zotero, or Export CSV for spreadsheet tools. Every export includes a sibling audit log — keep it with your protocol appendix.
