Why link your ORCID account with IRIS?

ORCID is a system that provides a reliable way to link your research outputs to your profile, through a unique identifier associated with your researcher profile.

Linking your ORCID account to IRIS allows you to easily connect and synchronize your research activities between the two systems.

This integration facilitates the import and export of your publications, projects, and funding information, while ensuring the consistency and reliability of your data.

It therefore helps to increase the visibility of your work, simplify the management of your research outputs, and ensure compliance with funding agencies’ requirements, thereby strengthening your impact within the scientific community.

Create an ORCID Account (if you haven't already)

1. Go to the official website: https://orcid.org
2. This will allow you to obtain a unique identifier through which your research contributions can be reliably tracked.

Accessing Your Profile via the Login Menu

1. From the IRIS homepage, click on the login menu.
2. In the dropdown menu, select “My account and profile.”
3. You’ll be redirected to a page titled “Update Profile”. Click on “View” to open the full version of your profile.
   

Accessing Your Profile via Search

Connect Your ORCID ID

4. Linking your ORCID account to IRIS enables communication between the two systems. However, publications will not be transferred automatically.
   When a new publication is added to your ORCID profile, IRIS will notify you upon your next login and guide you through a simplified process to add it to your IRIS profile.
