I was happy to see the return of ORCID in 6.3, however I'm experiencing some odd behavior which I think may be a bug.
Using the Lookup button, the initial interaction with the OCRID v2 API seems to work great [image: orcid_bug_01.png] <about:invalid#zClosurez> A match is found, I can see the ORCID and I can add that person as an author. An entry is written in the Solr autority database. [image: orcid_bug_02.png] <about:invalid#zClosurez> However, if the Lookup button is used again with that same author's name, not only is the current entry from authority control returned, but an additional hit from OCRID appears (shown in yellow in the image below). To add to the confusion, the current hit from authority control does *not* show the ORCID, even though is it recorded in the Solr database. [image: orcid_bug_03.png] <about:invalid#zClosurez> This differs from the previous behavior with DSpace and the ORCID v1 API. I'm sure matches from the local authority control database *would* display the ORCID, and if a hit from the ORCID API matched an existing entry in authority control, it would not be displayed in italics as a new author. If I go ahead and select the new italicized author in the above scenario, DSpace will create a duplicate entry in the authority control database. The records will have different record IDs, but the data, including the ORCID ID, is the same. [image: orcid_bug_04.png] <about:invalid#zClosurez> This process can repeat; each time you lookup an author, an additional new entry from ORCID will appear as new, and if selected, and additional authority control record will be created. I'm seeing this behavior on my test server (running DSpace 6.4-SNAPSHOT checked out of GitHub lat week) but I also see the same behavior on the DSpace 6.3 demo site, so I don't believe it's an issue with my configuration. Does this sound like a bug? Is anyone else using ORCID v2 integration experiencing this behavior? - Darryl ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Darryl Friesen, B.Sc., Programmer/Analyst darryl.frie...@usask.ca Library Systems & Information Technology, http://library.usask.ca/ University of Saskatchewan Library ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "Go not to the Elves for counsel, for they will say both no and yes" -- All messages to this mailing list should adhere to the DuraSpace Code of Conduct: https://duraspace.org/about/policies/code-of-conduct/ --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DSpace Technical Support" group.
