EndNote is not recommended for use with cloud based storage (E.g., Dropbox, SharePoint, Box, iCloud, OneDrive, Google Drive) as the files may go corrupt over time.  However, you may store a compressed library format (.enlx file) of your EndNote library there as a backup copy (see how to create a compressed library)

Here are some options to change the settings on Windows or macOS so that the area you store your EndNote libraries is not synced to the cloud:

For macOS- iCloud, see here: Change your iCloud settings

For Windows- OneDrive, see here: Choose which OneDrive folders to sync to your computer
