Connect ORCiD to Your SDSU Account

Connecting your accounts means that you will be able to logon using SDSUid rather than having to remember a separate username and password for ORCiD every time. To connect your ORCiDID, navigate to https://orcid.org/signin and click on the "Institutional account" tab. Once you select SDSU as your home institution and sign in with your ORCID credentials, your ORCiDwill be linked to SDSU. For all future logins to ORCiD, just select the institutional account option and sign in with SDSUid, your ORCiDcredentials will not be required.

 

Add Your Information

Add your professional information and link to your other identifiers (Scopus, ResearcherID, LinkedIn). Connect with CrossRef, DataCite, Publons, and more! Add publication data to your ORCiD record by using the Search and Link Wizard, importing your citations as a BibTeX file, or entering them manually.

Use Your ORCiD ID

Include your ORCiD identifier on your Webpage, in your email signature, when you submit to publications or apply for grants, and in any research workflow to ensure you get credit for your work. To find out more, check out the Using Your ORCiD page of this guide.
