FAQPage Schema
How do I search for a journal on CNKI by ISSN?▼

Provide the ISSN in the format 1000-1234 and the search automatically detects the pattern and selects the ISSN search type on navi.cnki.net. Results include the journal name, URL, CN number, and impact factors.

How to find CNKI journal impact factors automatically?▼

The search extracts both the composite impact factor (复合影响因子) and comprehensive impact factor (综合影响因子) from each result entry, along with citation and download counts, using a single browser evaluate_script call.

What search types does CNKI journal search support?▼

It supports searching by journal name, ISSN, CN number, or sponsor (主办单位) name. ISSN and CN patterns are auto-detected via regular expressions and the matching option is selected in the search dropdown.

Why does CNKI search return a captcha error?▼

CNKI shows a Tencent captcha when it detects automated traffic. The skill checks whether the captcha element is actually visible on screen and returns an error so you can solve it manually before retrying.

Can I open a CNKI journal detail page after searching?▼
