When I export items from Google Scholar, they do not include an associated URL. Anyone else experiencing this?

    Can you provide an example of what you mean?

    The URL field should include the URL where the full text of the item can be found. Google Scholar doesn’t provide that data for many items (only items that have a linked PDF and then only sporadically), so Zotero doesn’t Have anything to import. In general, Google Scholar metadata is very bad (no abstract, no editors, no DOI). You will almost always get better metadata by following the link to the publisher website and importing from there.
