IEEE Xplore Citation Export

Export article citations from IEEE Xplore. Supports Plain Text, BibTeX, RIS, RefWorks formats, and Zotero push.

Single Article Export (from Document Page)

Step 1: Navigate to article page (if needed)

If not already on the article page:

navigate_page({
  url: "{BASE_URL}/document/{ARNUMBER}/",
  initScript: "Object.defineProperty(navigator, 'webdriver', {get: () => undefined})"
})

Step 2: Open "Cite This" modal and extract citation

Click the "Cite This" button, select the desired format tab, and extract the citation text:

async (format) => {
  // format: 'text', 'bibtex', 'ris', 'refworks'
  // Wait for page to load
  for (let i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
    if (document.querySelector('.document-title')) break;
    await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 500));
  }

  // Click "Cite This" button
  const citeBtn = [...document.querySelectorAll('button')].find(b => b.textContent.trim() === 'Cite This');
  if (!citeBtn) return { error: 'Cite This button not found.' };
  citeBtn.click();

  // Wait for modal to appear
  await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 1500));

  // Map format to tab name
  const tabMap = {
    'text': 'Plain Text',
    'bibtex': 'BibTeX',
    'ris': 'RIS',
    'refworks': 'Refworks'
  };
  const tabName = tabMap[format] || 'BibTeX';

  // Click the desired format tab
  const tab = [...document.querySelectorAll('.cite-this-container a')].find(a => a.textContent.trim() === tabName);
  if (tab) tab.click();

  // Wait for content to load
  await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 1000));

  // Extract citation text
  const citeContent = document.querySelector('.cite-this-container .ql-editor') ||
                      document.querySelector('.cite-this-container [xplmathjax]') ||
                      document.querySelector('.cite-this-container pre');
  const citationText = citeContent?.textContent?.trim() || '';

  // Get article info for metadata
  const title = document.querySelector('.document-title span')?.textContent?.trim() || '';
  const arnumber = window.location.pathname.match(/\/document\/(\d+)/)?.[1] || '';

  // Close modal
  const closeBtn = document.querySelector('.cite-this-container .fa-times') ||
                   document.querySelector('.modal .close');
  if (closeBtn) closeBtn.click();

  return { citationText, format: tabName, title, arnumber };
}
