Hi All
Following the comments / requests from John and Sheila, I’ve now updated the app to support some extra stuff when searching for ORCID affiliations.
You can now search by any combination of:
* Ringgold ID
* GRID ID
* email domain (in the users public emails)
* affiliated organisation name
For each of these you can include multiple values in a pipe separated list. The pipe character looks like a vertical line: |
So for example, the following URL will search for all users who are:
Affiliated with Ringgold 3162 OR affiliated with GRID grid.4970a OR have an email which is @rhul.ac.uk or have an affiliated organisation with the name “Royal Holloway, University of London” or “RHUL” (see the vertical pipe between “London” and “RHUL” in the URL - this means these are treated as two separate organisation names - organisation names should do exact matching I thinkg
https://powerful-chamber-19570.herokuapp.com/?ringgold=3162&grid=grid.4970.a&emaildomain=rhul.ac.uk&orgname=Royal%20Holloway%2C%20University%20of%20London|RHUL <https://powerful-chamber-19570.herokuapp.com/?ringgold=3162&grid=grid.4970.a&emaildomain=rhul.ac.uk&orgname=Royal%20Holloway,%20University%20of%20London%7CRHUL>
I’ve not changed the interface at all so you have to build the URL yourself - but hopefully that all makes sense.
Owen
PS:
For those interested the query generated for the ORCID API by the app given the URL above is:
https://pub.orcid.org/v3.0/search/?q=ringgold-org-id:3162%20OR%20grid-org-id:grid.4970.a%20OR%20email:*@rhul.ac.uk%20OR%20affiliation-org-name:%22Royal Holloway, University of London%22%20OR%20affiliation-org-name:%22RHUL%22&rows=999
Because there are 1376 results (i.e. more than the 999 retrieved by this first query) this is followed up by another query which retrieves that next 1000 records:
https://pub.orcid.org/v3.0/search/?q=ringgold-org-id:3162%20OR%20grid-org-id:grid.4970.a%20OR%20email:*@rhul.ac.uk%20OR%20affiliation-org-name:%22Royal Holloway, University of London%22%20OR%20affiliation-org-name:%22RHUL%22&start=1000&rows=1000

The application I have written (which was written as a demonstration or
proof-of-concept but has proved useful to a number of people) is
available for anyone to use.
The application is available at https://powerful-chamber-19570.herokuapp.com
The source code is available at https://github.com/ostephens/orcid-node
Information on how to use the application is available on the page at
https://powerful-chamber-19570.herokuapp.com which explains how to
search for affiliations based on one or more IDs, email domains or
organization names.
For example to search for people affiliated to Padjadjaran University
based on GRID and Ringgold IDs, you can use a URL like
https://powerful-chamber-19570.herokuapp.com/?grid=grid.11553.33&ringgold=61809
If you are going to use the application, please do take time to read and
understand the limitations of the application also stated on the web page:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In its current form*/it has a number of issues and limitations/*– please
consider them carefully and use it responsibly:
* The researchers shown as affiliated is unlikely to be a true and
accurate reflection of all researchers at your institution. Please
see theJisc UK ORCID Consortium blog post
<https://ukorcidsupport.jisc.ac.uk/2019/06/identifying-your-researchers-challenges-and-opportunities/>for
more details.
* The ORCID public API only supports retrieval of the first 11000
results, so if you have more than 11000 users affiliated to your
institution the application will not retrieve them all.
* To serve some requests, the application can make a very large number
of queries on the ORCID registry public API – please do not refresh
results frequently (although there is some caching).
* Although the application only accesses and displays information made
public by users of the ORCID registry, it may expose personal
information that they had not expected to be used in such a manner.

Best wishes
