ORCID Integration with myVITA

The integration with ORCID allows users to update their data within myVITA from their ORCID record. The ORCID record focuses on faculty scholarship and consolidates scholarly works from many online sources. This makes the myVITA-ORCID integration a powerful resource for many faculty loading their scholarship into myVITA. Click here for instructions.

Interfolio (host of myVITA software) is an ORCID Member Organization. ORCID is an open, not-for profit organization that serves the research community by providing individuals with a user identifier, called an ORCID ID, that reliably and clearly connects them with their research contributions and affiliations.

In addition to research and scholarly works, an ORCID record can hold work experience, education, training, grants, and a biography. In myVITA, access to the ORCID functionality is available in the Legacy Vitas menu.

In order to use this integration, a faculty member must generate a user ORCID ID by establishing an account/record in the ORCID system. Once an ORCID account is set up, then the ORCID import and export functionality becomes available.
