Converting WoS results to XML using Zotero before upload them to Covidence: Does this work?
Dear all
I made a search on Web of Science that I want to screen using Covidence. I don't have Endnote so I cannot do it directly. However, I exported the WoS results to Covidence by converting them to Endnote XML using Zotero, and the notes were uploaded successfully.
However, Covidence customer support asks me that I have to make sure that Zotero has the appropriate "filters". I really don't what is the function of those filters?
Has anyone else had the same issue? Or do you know another walk around?
Thanks
David

I have a question for kj30 and sorry for posting here but people are a bit unresponsive in the general forum. I am also starting with Zotero and Covidence, but I am a bit insecure whether something would work.
The results from a large search in Web of Science were uploaded in Zotero before exporting them as EndNote XML into Covidence for screening. I had no warnings nor errors in Covidence after uploading; thus I assume everything is fine. Has anyone done with no problems?
My doubts started when Covidence customer service tells to be sure that I have to have some "filters"; I have no idea what they are talking about.
Do I need to install a Endnote filter in Zotero despite I can export files from Zotero as Endnote XML?
Please help!
I don't think there's an alternative to testing yourself whether import worked fine. E.g. I assume you can count the number of items imported.
