ORCID Privacy •  Information in an ORCID Record has a privacy setting

•  “Visibility” element in the message controls the privacy

setting

The APIs •  Public API •  No token or registration needed •  Can only access data marked as public •  Can only READ

•  Member API •  Registration and token needed •  Can access data marked as public or limited •  Can READ, EDIT, APPEND; For institutions/employers, it is also

possible to CREATE •  Specific permissions must be granted by the Scholar •  ORCID Profile Change Notification API (premier members only)

Page 10: ORCID Member Site Integration: Using the API

iD

ORCID.org

The Basic API Call •  The API is RESTful and URI-based, and each call has: •  Scope •  Permission level (public or limited data) •  Timeframe

•  Information about the ORCID Record is passed in an ORCID Message

•  OAuth 2.0 is used to allow the record holder to grant specific permissions to member sites •  Permissions are enforced through an OAuth Access Token

•  Error messages provide feedback on failed requests

Page 11: ORCID Member Site Integration: Using the API

iD

ORCID.org

Authenticate •  To receive privileges (trusted organization), member sites do

an authentication dance •  Request access from the user (members only) è User grants

access •  Exchange user permission to get an Access Token

(using /oauth/authenticate) •  Exchange an Access Token for ORCID data using the API calls

•  The Access Token •  Token Type & Access Token - used together to authorize access to

ORCID data •  Expires In – describes how long the permission is granted •  Scope – the scope of the permission •  ORCID ID – the ID of the user who has granted permission

Page 12: ORCID Member Site Integration: Using the API

COMMON WAYS TO USE THE API ORCID Member Site Integration

Page 20: ORCID Member Site Integration: Using the API

iD

ORCID.org

Using the API:

About this Scholar

User is on a site and wants more info about a scholar

Site performs a search based on known information.

Site parses the returned ORCID Message & displays public data to user

1 2 3

A website displays info from the ORCID Record of scholar who has an ID

What to Query? Public API Search Display Data

http://devsandbox.orcid.org/search/orcid-bio/?q=[search terms]

Page 21: ORCID Member Site Integration: Using the API

iD

ORCID.org

Other Uses:

About this Scholar This process can be used in several situations: •  Filling a form about the user by pulling from their ORCID Record

•  Filling a form about collaborators when the researcher knows their ORCID IDs

•  Displaying “works by this scholar” by receiving a current list from the scholar’s ORCID Record

•  Use information in an ORCID Record to help identify conflict-of-interest challenges for peer reviews

Page 22: ORCID Member Site Integration: Using the API

iD

ORCID.org

Using the API:

Keep Us Up-to-date

Member site asks for ongoing READ permissions from a Scholar

Scholar reviews the request and establishes trust relationships

READ READ

Member site becomes trusted; may receive record updates

1 2 3

A Scholar establishes a trust relationship while at a member site

OAuth Dance OAuth/authenticate

READ

?

API GET read-limited api.devsandbox.orcid.org/[orcid_id]/orcid-record

Get & store “until revoked” read-limited access token

Page 23: ORCID Member Site Integration: Using the API

iD

ORCID.org

Other Uses:

Keep Us Up-to-date This process can be used in several situations: •  Updating your records for a researcher

•  Trigger an activity when certain items change for a researcher

•  NOTE: Callback API can be used to automatically be notified when things change on the scholar’s record.

Page 24: ORCID Member Site Integration: Using the API

iD

ORCID.org

Using the API:

Enhance My Record

Member site asks for one-time APPEND permission

Scholar reviews the request and establishes trust relationships

APPEND READ

READ ADD TO

Member site becomes trusted; may add activities one time

1 2 3

A Scholar establishes a trust relationship with member site to add to their Record

OAuth Dance OAuth authenticate

APPEND READ ?

API POST

api.devsandbox.orcid.org/[orcid_id]/orcid-activities

Get ONE TIME access token /orcid-activities/create

Page 25: ORCID Member Site Integration: Using the API

iD

ORCID.org

Other Uses:

Enhance My Record This process can be used in several situations: •  Encouraging a researcher to add their ORCID ID by offering to

add the manuscript to their record.

•  Offer to add a list of research activities to a researcher’s record in exchange for reviewing the data that your site has stored for him/her.
