ProQuest - error when adding references

kybrarian

Hi Zotero team,

I'm getting an error message when trying to add references with the Zotero extension from a ProQuest page. The error message says "An error occurred saving with ProQuest. Attempting to save using Embedded Metadata instead." This has happened with many ProQuest articles. The reference does seem to be saved using the embedded metadata, but it does not correctly capture the metadata for the article (ie. no author listed, wrong item type, etc.)

See DebugID D768052509 for more info.

Thanks,
Kyle

Could we get a sample URL please, exactly as you see it?

Here's one example URL that generates this error: https://www.proquest.com/docview/2512575530?accountid=28598&sourcetype=Scholarly Journals

This error occurred repeatedly with multiple journal articles from ProQuest, however.
