doi in my EndNote library

I am importing cites from Internet to my EndNote library but the End Note don’t  extract the doi from the reference, even when the doi appears on line and in the article pdf. How can I do to obtain the doi in my EndNote reference files at the same time the the other article information (title, authors, publication year, etc), withouth write it manually?

Thanks in advance,

Elena

Are you importing PDFs or importing or  uploading directly from a database.  

Are you using “connection files” or importing database downloads.  

Have you tried right click on record in endnote library view and selecting  “Find Reference update”  to see if it is an updated field?  

I’m importing the articles information from Google Scholar to EndNote

I note that others working with other programs note that this info isn’t retrieved from Google Scholar.  I can retrieve it subsequent to download by “update reference” - at least the ones I tried.  

Same problem. The the endnote is not able to extract the DOI when importing from the Google Scholar even after updating the selected reference under the reference menu. Any easy way to add or extract the DOI of the references?

I think this is a Google Scholar issue, not an EndNote issue. I typically instruct my users to click out of Google Scholar to the source document and export the citation from there. Not all sources have an export citation option, but typically if there is a DOI, then it should.
