Importing Records Into Covidence

Steps

After creating your review and configuring your settings, it's time to import your search results. References can be imported using the EndNote XML format, the PubMed format, or the RIS text format. You can import files up to 50 MB in size into Covidence, and up to 15,000 references. Larger files may take longer to upload and process. One file can be imported at a time, and there is no limit to how many imports you can perform.

  1. In the section titled "Import references," click the blue button that says "Import."
