This document summarizes several tools and platforms that integrate with ORCID profiles to help researchers manage their work and collaborations. It describes how Altmetric, Figshare, Overleaf, ReadCube, Symplectic Elements, and UberResearch integrate with ORCID to allow researchers to link publications and other research outputs to their ORCID profile, track metrics and attention for their work, and facilitate collaboration and information sharing between tools and platforms.

12. About Figshare
• Research data sharing
and management
platform.
• Make research outputs
available in a citable
(DOIs), shareable and
discoverable manner.
• Improving
discoverability of
repositories and re-use
of data.
• Support for research
data management,
open access.

13. Figshare + ORCiD

14. Figshare + ORCiD
• Bi-directional syncing between figshare and ORCiD.
• All publicly available research outputs for a researcher can be displayed in an ORCiD record.
• A publications list or academic biography in an ORCiD record can be pulled into figshare and displayed in a researcher
profile.
• All of a researcher’s publicly available figshare outputs are automatically added to an ORCID account via the recent
DataCite developments.
• A researcher’s publication list can be pulled into their figshare profile to avoid duplicated effort. This is also true for
other pieces of information, such as an academic biography.

including an option
for the author to link
their ORCiD to their
Overleaf account.
Overleaf encourages
authors to connect
their ORCiD to their
Overleaf account

27. About Symplectic Elements

28. Elements + ORCiD
Features in Elements
• Add existing ORCiD
• Create new ORCiD
• Auto-claims outputs with DOI and
ORCiD
University ‘source of truth’ for ORCiD:
• Academics can self-register
• Can feed into other university systems
Most recent addition: We now also
automatically claim any publications on
behalf of an author that have
their ORCID present in the metadata – this
could be publications from Web of Science,
Scopus etc., even if that record is not
in ORCID – once the author has gone through
the ORCID ‘configure connection’ process in
Elements first.
