As part of your ORCID membership, ORCID provides member and integration reports that you can access and download as and when required. Member Reporting is available to all members and provides insights into how integrations are being used, the number of researchers that have connected their iDs to the integration, alongside the number of records which have been updated.
ORCID also provides an Affiliation Report which is available to consortium members only and a Consortia Dashboard which is only available to our Consortia Lead organisations.
Your reports are available via the ORCID Member Portal. All ORCID members have access to the ORCID Member Portal. If you are an active member and do not have access to the portal then please let us know.
From within the member portal you will be able to access your reports from the ‘Tools’ menu.
