Q. Will my ORCID profile populate automatically with my research outputs?

No, you will have to grant permission for Trusted Organisations (e.g CrossRef and Datacite) to read and update your ORCID record. These permissions are long-lasting for up to 20 years, or until you revoke permission from your account settings.

To set up permissions with a Trusted Organisation:

• Under Add Works, click "search and link".


• Select from the list of member organisations. Our library recommends granting permissions to the following: Crossref Metadata Search, DataCite, ResearcherID and Scopus ID.
• For guided instructions on how to add works to ORCID, please refer to our Libguide.

To revoke permissions from a Trusted Organisation:

• At the top of the page, hover your mouse over the "For Researchers" tab.
• A menu bar will appear below. Click on "Account settings".
• View the list of Trusted Organisations you have authorised. Click the "trash" icon to revoke permission.
