All affiliation sections use the same set of metadata in the API:
- Organization name*: The name of the journal
- External identifier*: The registered ISSN of the journal
- URL: A website URL related to the homepage of the journal
- Role/title: The title of the role or description of the editorial service
- Start date: The date the relationship between the researcher and the journal began (can be specified down to year, month, and day)
- End date: The date the relationship between the researcher and the journal ended (can be specified down to year, month, and day)
Note that Editorial Service activities with a valid ISSN will display as Editorial Service within the UI. Like other Service activities, Editorial Service is added via the Service API endpoint and is read as Service in the API. These activities do not require an Organization ID.
