I want to make sure I understand what the ORCID function in 6.3 provides. So I have a few questions.
(1) When you run [dspace]/bin/dspace index-authority this goes out to: https://pub.orcid.org/v2.1 (defined in dspace.cfg:orcid.api.url ) And creates records of them in the authority index. Correct? (2) After the solr authority index is created, depositors of items will be given a "Lookup" button for dc metadata configed, out of the box this is contributor.author. The user can then click on this button and search for the author and select it. I'm a bit confused about the difference between the case when the selection presents the same author twice ( once italicized, and one not ). What's the difference in selecting one from the other? (3) Do you ever see the ORCIDs for the authors in any of the Dspace pages? Say during the deposit, I select Smith, John with x ORCID, does this show up in the short display? I would think it would be valuable to see the ORCids? (4) I have a spreadsheet of authors and ORCIDs. Is there a way to get it in the authority index, or is the only way for the authority index to be populated via https://pub.orcid.org/v2.1 when you run "[dspace]/bin/dspace index-authority"? (5) Do any cron jobs have to be run to maintain the authority index? Should [dspace]/bin/dspace index-authority be run periodically? I think it takes a long time for this to run, so it may not be practical? (6) I think one thing I'm really confused about is why the ORCId is never displayed. (7) In the table metadatavalue, I think authority is a key to the authority solr index for that record, but what is the confidence field? (8) Is there any information about the orcid in any of the tables of the database?
