Symplectic Elements edit

Symplectic is a Certified Service Provider for ORCID[1]

Elements offers a range of ways researchers can connect their ORCID account to streamline workflows and share data between the two systems[1].

  • Automatically claim publications that include your ORCID
  • Write selected records from Symplectic Elements to your ORCID account
  • Write your affiliation to the University of Leeds to your ORCID account

On logging in to the system researchers are prompted to ‘Connect your ORCID iD’ from the ‘My Actions’ list on the homepage to establish a link from Elements to their ORCID account using OAuth[1]. If you don’t have an ORCID iD yet, you may register for one now.

Once linked, Elements will periodically search ORCID for “works” containing a DOI, PubMed ID or Scopus ID and collect trusted metadata from some of other data sources including PubMed, Scopus and CrossRef and automatically associate this harvested data with a researcher’s Elements account[1].

You can manage or revoke permission at any time from Symplectic Elements via: Menu > My Profile > Settings > ORCID Settings, and then clicking on the ‘Revoke authorisation’ link. Revoking authorisation will prevent Symplectic Elements from interacting with ORCID, and your permissions will be changed to 'only use my ORCID iD to support automatic claiming'[2].
